Air conditioning evacuation
Proper air conditioning evacuation is vital for system health and efficiency. We expertly remove moisture and non-condensable gases from commercial AC circuits.
Air conditioning evacuation
Evacuation is a fundamental process in commercial air conditioning maintenance and installation, especially after repairs or opening the refrigerant circuit. It involves removing all air, moisture, and other non-condensable gases from the system using a vacuum pump. Failing to properly evacuate can lead to reduced efficiency, increased operating pressures, component corrosion, and ultimately, premature system failure.
Our certified engineers connect a powerful vacuum pump and micron gauge to the system's service ports. They then draw down the system to a deep vacuum, typically below 500 microns, and hold it for a specific duration. This low-pressure environment boils off and removes any lingering moisture and non-condensable gases, preparing the system for a clean refrigerant charge.
