Yes correct it was empty i tought about that later after posted , and compressor had to work 3 time to add air in tank. Air was warmer than the tank. An tank was cold. today added a bit more cool air to make 38.
I don't have water trap in air line if you mean in compressor.
For now is ok I will keep track air for sometime.

THe problem is i have water hammer when i quickly shut off faucet in kitchen noise come from bathroom .! Do u know what cause this problem. And how to fix without water hammer arrestor. I have galvanized old pipes.
Thank you
Yes, I'm thinking it was just an air temperature thing, so you should be OK.

If the pressure is the same as it always has been, I'm not sure why you would have water hammer now versus before the new diaphragm tank has been installed. But if you've had water hammer most of the time, you have three choices.

1. Install arrestors.
2. Anchor the pipes that are causing the noise.
3. Don't shut off the faucets quickly. LOL.
 
Nothing, by apparently, you deleted that post as it only showed up in an E-Mail to me and not in this thread. Just didn't know why you would have deleted it.
It was a double post and I edited it but apparently I erased it, I have no way to delete a post.

I’m out working on service calls while I’m answering questions with an iPhone.
