So I'm awaiting delivery of a fan-cooled and internal water tank-cooled air compressor and am wondering if I can leave the water tank (which I plan to fill with a 50:50 mix of distilled water & Water Wetter) filled between uses or if it is recommended to empty it. Thx!

WAY too much WW.

32:1 is the recommended ratio. The more "stuff" you add (WW, AF, etc.) the lower the cooling properties become. You only want enough to kill fungi and prevent corrosion, which Redline says will happen at 32:1.

As an example, for my GX-CS4, I use 8 ml of WW to 250 ml of DW.
