Everything hard line only vibration control is right off the compressor that's it I'm not bashing setup looks all nice and pretty it's just not efficient or correct. Just my option that's all but what I know.
Champion and Quincy disagree with you but what do they know they only build some of the best compressors. It is 100% correct. Nuff said.

Plant air piping should be periodically inspected for leaks using a soap and water solution for detection
on all pipe joints. Air leaks waste energy and are expensive.
