What is an AC Vacuum Pump?

An AC vacuum pump let you create a vacuum in the HVAC system. This is very useful when checking for leaks, as a leaking system will not hold a vacuum. It is a common tool for a technician to use just after replacing an AC component, like the compressor, to check their work, or when attempting to diagnose an issue when the system is not working correctly.

In addition to looking for leaks, this tool can be used to remove water or moisture which can accumulate inside of the parts of the system. This is important to do after certain repair services.
