sounds like a lot of money and work to fill tires. out in oregon we just go to a napa store and buy the fitting that connects the garden hose to the tire valve stem, $10 tops, not $90! we useually don't use calcium in tires anymore, water freezes at 32F, but it takes several weeks to freeze 60 gal of water or more, especially if it is in an enclosed shop or a dirt floor barn. just run water in for a while, pull the hose off to let the air escape, run in more water. a great way to add weight to the front or rear of a tractor without making it wider or longer. water also makes it easier to find the leak sometimes. and since it is pure water, just let it run out on the ground to "recycle" it. tire places charge an arm, leg, and firstborn to pump calcuim in and out of tires.
