Does anyone know if this would be the minimum spec required to blow out a home sprinkler system?
Not how you think, no. Could you do it? Yes! Would it take you all day (if you have 12 zones like I do)? Yes.
Blowing out sprinklers is more about sustained volume rather that PSI. 8 gallons is decent, but without taking the time (sorry!) to look up the specs on this unit specifically, I doubt it would have the sustained capicity. Second thing to consider is the duty cycle (how long it should rest between tank charges). If this is a home-owner model, that duty cycle is not really sufficient to use the compressor continuously w/o burning it out.
That all said, I have a similar compressor and for about $90 at HF, I built out an 11-gallon in-line expansion tank. It's not perfect, but it allows me to put more volume down each line per charge. $90 is about the same it would cost me to have someone come blow them out once.
Anyone know how long these are meant to last? I have a smaller version of this that I bought about 15 years ago, and I've been meaning to research if the tanks become unsafe after a certain time, like the paintball tanks.
I've been watching for air compressors for awhile in these smaller portable sizes. I've had my eye on https://www.homedepot.com/p/RIDGI.../300779816 which isn't on sale right now but it's got double the CFM and still quiet, so not sure if I should pull the trigger on this one or not.
Mainly would use it for nail gun etc but also would like to use it to blow stuff off which I understand the larger gallon capacity would help with but seems the Rigid would have more CFM for that.

I have a 2 gallon compressor that I used when I finished my basement to run two framing nailers. This one is more than adequate also blowing stuff off shouldn't take a huge compressor. You could use canned air to do that task and it's not nearly as powerful as a compressor.

Generally, steel tanks are good for 10+ years. Just make sure to drain after use.

Drain after each use. This should last long. Only complains I have heard the tank leaking. So test it thoroughly in the return period.
Make a pony bottle out of a propane tank and you now have portable air tank and added reserve for the included compressor tank.
Not a good idea. who is going to drain the propane tank after each use? Recipe for a disaster in a few years when the propane tank explodes due to internal rust.,

I use a 6 gallon Ridgid compressor for my 6-zone sprinkler system and while it takes some time, it gets the job done. A 20 gallon (or even a 10 gallon) tank is much better, though. I've borrowed a larger one from a friend occasionally and the difference is significant.
