Water Resistance and Installation Position of Air Lift WirelessONE Compressor System AL25980

Question:

I have read that the manifold is water proof up to 2 feet, what about the compressor and relay. Since it is mounted so low on the rail there is a high probability of submersion especially in Floridas flash rains. If it does become water damaged from normal use how will the warranty work. Thanks

The installation instructions for the Air Lift WirelessONE Compressor System # AL25980, linked for your reference, do note on page 6 that the compressor should be mounted in a "dry, protected area". Direct water splashes or other excess moisture can damage the compressor, as can high heat. Weather-related/flood issues would not be considered a product issue.

Since the compressor can be mounted in any position this gives you some leeway to place it in such a protected area, but it will have to be within 24-inches of the manifold in order to connect using the included harness.
