What handpieces face in Caldwell
Air and moisture
Dry air is a real advantage in Caldwell. The dew point averages 33°F and never cleared 60°F last year, so the water load your compressor handles is a fraction of what a humid-climate practice deals with. Bearings here rarely die of corrosion — they die of heat and running dry, which makes lubrication discipline the thing worth tightening.
Altitude and your compressor
At 2,375 ft, Caldwell takes a modest bite out of compressor output — around 93% of the rated figure. Enough to notice on a marginal compressor, not enough to worry about on a healthy one. Either way, drive pressure should stay at the manufacturer’s spec measured at the handpiece head.
Getting it here and back
From Caldwell it’s 695 miles to our bench — USPS Zone 5, 5-7 business days door to door, transit time included. Rush service is there when a handpiece can’t wait that long.
