FS-Curtis CA13-H — 13 HP (Gas) Air Compressor
A shop working in a location without reliable electrical service — a job site, a barn, a remote bay — needs a compressor that doesn't care whether there's power nearby at all.
The FS-Curtis CA13-H is a gas-powered, two-stage reciprocating compressor rated for 13 HP (Gas) with a 30 gallon horizontal ASME tank, built for shops and commercial operations that need compressed air on tap all day without paying for accessories they don’t need.
Who the CA13-H Is Built For
- ✅ A mobile or job-site operation working in locations without reliable electrical service, where a gas engine means the compressor runs regardless of power availability
- ✅ A shop or farm building without existing electrical infrastructure where running new wiring would cost more than the compressor itself
- ✅ An operator who needs backup air capability during a power outage that would otherwise shut down every electric compressor in the building
- ✅ A buyer wanting Honda engine reliability specifically, versus the Kohler option on the CA14-K
- ✅ A shop with occasional need for portable, self-contained air supply that doesn't require running an extension cord or new circuit
What the CA13-H Is NOT Built For
- ❌ Shops with reliable, adequate electrical service already in place — an electric CA5/CA7.5/CA10 unit runs quieter, without fuel costs, and without exhaust
- ❌ Indoor use without proper ventilation — gas engines produce exhaust that must be vented
- ❌ Shops wanting the highest CFM per dollar — at 22 CFM for a 13 HP engine, this trades some efficiency for the gas-powered flexibility
What Makes the CA13-H Different
Commercial 2-Stage Pump
The CA13-H uses an E57, Cast-Iron, Two-Stage pump built for daily, all-day duty cycles — not a hobby-grade single-stage unit that struggles under continuous shop use.
CFM & Pressure Output
Delivers 22 CFM @ 175 PSI and holds pressure up to 175 PSI, enough headroom to run impact wrenches, tire equipment, and paint tools without the tank running dry.
Power Requirements
gas-powered (Honda engine), no electrical hookup required.
- No electrical hookup needed
- Job-site / remote-location use
- Honda engine reliability
- Shops with reliable power already
- Indoor use without ventilation
