Depends on the type of air compressor.

If it is an electric motor driven compressor, and you have the correct power supply, you should not have any problem.

Electrically driven air compressors do not normally exude any non-safe substances when running.

The air out of the hose is not breathing quality air, as it may contain oil residue, dust etc., but then, you aren't planning on making the compressor output your only breathing air source, I would expect.

I use mine in the house (with ear plugs in) all the time. No negative effects, unless you consider that my recently growing third arm.... just kidding! :-)
