Blowers
Kaeser blowers are built for a lifetime of high performance, low energy costs, and best in class performance, with flow rates between 170 ICFM and 2603 ICFM
Vacuums
Kaeser's Rotary screw vacuum packages are the perfect solution to industrial Vacuum applications. Featuring our award-winning Sigma Profile™, airend, our range of machines produce 166 to 551 acfm.
Boosters
When compressed air or gas applications require higher pressure than a “standard” air compressor can produce, high pressure booster compressors are an economical and effective solution.
Controllers
Kaeser's Sigma air Manager, SAM 4.0 provides complete system management for air compressors, blowers and vacuums, from a large easy to read screen.
Accessories
Whatever it is you're looking for, our accessories range from the gauges and valves in the compressor room, all the way through to the hoses and blow guns at the points of use.
Compressors
Our range of air compressors includes reciprocating piston, oil free, and oil injected rotary screw air compressors, from 3hp up to 660hp, and everything in between. If you do not know what you are looking for, we can assist with that too.
Dryers
Selecting the right dryer and filtration to ensure your facility receives clean, dry compressed air consistently, depends on many things. Our clean air selection process is based around ISO 8573.1 quality class standards.
Filters
If you are looking for assistance in the filtration of dirt, oil, water, bacteria, hydrocarbons, oil odor or vapor, we have a filter, or an element to capture whatever you need to stop. Compressed air, gases, liquids, ambient air, and water filtration is what we do best.
Tanks
Horizontal and Vertical air receiver storage tanks are available, with the most common sizes kept in stock at our Hamilton warehouse.
Condensate Management
Disposing of the compressed air oil/water condensate bi product, created by your compressor station, carries big legal, and environmental responsibilities. The person knowingly discharging oil to drain, is responsible.

The ultimate guide on rightsizing your compressed air system
Choosing the right compressed air system is crucial to minimize the total cost of ownership. How do you calculate the air demand in flow rate (CFM) and pressure (PSIG), what's the power requirement (V), and how does that translate in a compressed air system with one or more compressors (hp)?

Frequently asked questions
See All Frequently Asked QuestionsHow can a preventative maintenance plan save my company money?
Saving money is a given when preventative maintenance is performed on time by qualified staff using quality parts and lubricants. Yes, you will need to spend money on parts and labour, but we encourage you to consider this a relatively small investment to reduce the risk of downtime, which is usually exponentially more costly.
Here are some of the specific results of an air compressor breakdown.
- Lost production
- Compressor rental fees (including hook up)
- Inconvenience
- Refuelling
- Rush shipping
- Emergency repair costs
- Hasty decision making
- Catastrophic failure, beyond economic repair
- Unbudgeted/unplanned replacement costs
- Panic & stress - It’s hard to put a dollar value on these, but you know the toll they take
How much does a preventative maintenance plan cost and how much do I stand to save?
The condition, complexity, and scale of the equipment in your compressed air system will determine the extent of coverage you need.
The amount you save is difficult to assess because it depends on the cost of subsequent downtime in your plant and the extent of the breakdown. A catastrophic failure combined with any amount of downtime can add up to some pretty astronomical amounts.
What payment options do I have for a maintenance plan?
Option 1. “Pay-as-You-Go”
With our pay-as-you-go plans, prices are fixed for the duration of a one- or two-year plan. Whenever we install a part or perform labour, we bill accordingly, on a time and materials basis.
Option 2. Fixed Fee
Do you prefer the predictability of fitting a fixed fee plan into your annual budget? We’re happy to do that. We first assess the hours your compressors will be operating. Then, from the shift patterns, we estimate the required frequency of your service calls and the quantity of parts, oil, and labour required to perform those services.
Option 3. Payment Plans
Want to spread the preventative maintenance plan costs over semiannual, quarterly, or monthly payments? No problem. Almost 75% of our plans are formatted this way. You get one fixed invoice value two, four, or twelve times per year.
Can I purchase a preventative maintenance plan from Air Solutions Canada for non-Kaeser equipment?
Absolutely. We service any brand, anywhere, any time, any way, and any how.
If production times are reduced during the year, how does that impact our maintenance plan?
This often occurs, as demand for products increase and decrease. Our plans are flexible, and we can adjust to meet your needs. If the fixed payment plan has left money on the table, we simply issue a credit at the end of the term/agreement.
Are all of your maintenance plans the same?
No, every client’s preventative maintenance plans are tailored to our clients’ needs. They can be set up to suit any size and type of compressed air system. We can create plans for small or large piston, vane, rotary screw, and oil-free compressors, dryers, filters, drains, and condensate separators.
Because we have the largest compressed air service team in Southwestern Ontario and a fleet of rental compressors, maintenance can be scheduled any time you want, including nights and weekends. You’re the boss here. Tell us to jump and we will ask “how high?”
Is there technology that helps predict maintenance issues?
Yes, as a Kaeser dealer, we are licensed to sell and install Kaeser’s Sigma Air Manager 4.0 system (SAM). SAM integrates all of the components of your compressed air system, monitors, analyzes, and controls performance in real time, and provides warning, maintenance, alarm, and operational messages.
The combination of remote diagnostics and needs-based preventative maintenance help ensure maximum compressed air supply dependability. Through permanent availability of compressed air system process data and the resulting permanent analysis, it’s possible to identify the perfect point in the future when your compressed air system should be maintained and serviced.
Are there specific types of businesses for which preventative maintenance plans work best?
Any customer of any size can benefit from a preventative maintenance plan. Whether it’s a one-person operation with a 3-HP piston compressor, or a 1,000-person plant with a 5,000HP compressor.
Our customers include every facet of industry that uses compressed air: food and beverage, brewing, dairy, pharmaceuticals, automotive, municipal, hospitals, chemical plants, textiles, paper, electronics, aerospace, rubber, and steel (to name a few).
Do you outsource any of your maintenance work?
No, nothing is outsourced with Air Solutions Canada. We have one of the largest teams of compressed air service technicians in southern Ontario, including certified refrigeration technicians and millwrights. We have the in-house capability to directly handle any maintenance or service issues that arise.
