Compressor Room Observation
The problem with air compressors is that designers usually close them into a small room because they are so noisy (some newer compressors are not so noisy). A number of compressors might be squeezed into a small space to save valuable floor space.
Ventilation ducting is expensive, there might only be an inadequately sized ventilation hole cut into the wall to cool the room.

Compressors with no ducting will exhaust into the room, heating up the space if there is not adequate air flow—both into and out of the room. In the worst case scenario, the compressor cooling fan will suck in already heated air to form a closed circuit that will quickly cause compressor overheating.
Compressor room ventilation must direct the heat of compression away from the cooling air inlet, so problems do not occur. And don’t forget about the auxiliary equipment like refrigerated air dryers—these also create heat that can cause higher than desired compressor room temperatures.
