His Exhausted Air Recycling System <a href="http://www.earsnorthamerica.com/theearsstory.html"> (E.A.R.S.)</a> improves efficiency by eighty percent. It runs cooler, almost halves the power consumption, extends the life of the compressor, provides a cleaner working environment, and reduces the noise of an air tool to that of a sewing machine.
