We’ve reviewed several topics as of late and now we will begin the journey of a key HVAC Service Technician requirement: Equipment and Preparation.
Vacuum Pump Down Equipment and Preparation
Equipment: HVAC technicians use a vacuum pump, also known as a vacuum pump down, to create a vacuum within the system. Vacuum pumps come in various sizes and capacities, and they are specifically designed for HVAC applications. Additionally, technicians use vacuum-rated hoses and manifold gauges to connect the vacuum pump to the HVAC system.
Preparation: Before starting the vacuum pump down process, technicians ensure all necessary connections are made and the system is properly prepared for evacuation. This includes attaching the vacuum pump to the system’s service ports, closing off valves to isolate the system, and ensuring that all components are sealed to prevent air ingress.
During our 6-week workshops you will learn the proper strategies to pump down systems as we develop YOUR HVAC Clarity, Choice, Confidence, and Competence.
