Default SKS RENNKOMPRESSOR: A superior, recommended floor pump

A question about floor pumps with the gauge down at the foot of the pump. Does that position make the gauge more susceptible to moisture contamination interfering with the gauge accuracy? I was surprised with the water buildup from 2 weeks of semidaily operation in my park pump- to the point that I took the top fitting off, popped the piston/rod section off and left it upside down in the sun for the remainder of the day to clear out the accumulation.

All compressed air systems have condensation issues.
Remove the cover or case and drill a small (1~2mm) hole in
it to vent moisture, as is general practice for compressed
air gauges.
