Review on BACOENG HVAC/A/C Refrigeration Kit - Vacuum Pump & Manifold Gauge Set - Diagnostic R12 R22 R134a R410A - with Case by Brandon Wong

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Worked great for installing my new mini AC split unit.

I've used an installer on my new air conditioners in the past but this time I broke down and bought this kit as I have three units to install in the near future and hey that's not one rocket science. There are many great videos online showing how to install a new mini split system. The first install alone saved me $200-$300 in install after the cost of that pump and gauge kit so it's already paid for itself and saved me money even if he dies tomorrow. In the future I will also take a set of adapters for my cars. The pump sucked quickly and didn't get hot, although I ran it for another half hour to give the moisture enough time. be removed. The sensors are easy to set up and use and seal very well. I left them hooked up to the AC overnight to make sure there were no leaks. Neither the air conditioner nor the pressure gauge leaked vacuum. The tote bag is very good and I was very surprised by the thickness of the fabric and the quality. The nylon fabric has a rubber-plastic coating on the inside. This comes in handy if some oil ever leaks from the pump (as everyone often does). Are there better units? Definitely, but they'll cost you three to four times (or more) more than these. It's perfect for the DIY enthusiast.

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • Legacy model
