Definitely a game changer in residential. Removing the cores and using the proper size vacuum hoses really becomes critical to pulling a vacuum efficiently. Great review!
Every video I've watched on this vac pump has been positive. The pump I've got now is heavy, large and loud. I really like this wee pump and think I will just get it. Thanks for input bro.
I picked up the power adapter to plug mine in when i first purchased this, havnt had to use it yet though but nice to know if i forget to charge up,im covered. 4 cfm is more than enough flow for any resi,and in many cases overkill. The people that talk down on it are the ones using a manifold and leaving cores in, and dont understand that if they bought an 8 or 12 cfm pump, their vac times would remain the same. So for those using a manifold, buy the 2 cfm cause 4 cfm is too much for you, you wont pull 4cfm through one even w a 20 cfm pump
Hey buddy, how do you like your Navac since its been 3 yrs. I just found your video love it thanks for the full detail. My question is how long did it pull down since you are pulling the whole system. I'm looking to buy it any more info that you can give me would be appreciated.
I don’t know how your comment did not show up on my analytic but none the less yes I have heard of the JB Flex Cordless Pump. I saw it at Johnstone. They are pushing these instead of the NAVAC because of there relationship with JB company. I am going to purchase one by the time the summer rolls around just to try it out and give a good review. If you get one I would love to hear about your experience.
They work great on mini splits but they work just as well on residential systems. I have used them on big commercial equipment but you will never have enough battery life.
First, it's not a tiny pump. I have this pump for comercial heat pumps above drop ceilings because it's lighter than my fieldpiece and I can rest it rite on the ceiling grid. I pull down a 2 ton in about 6 min, a 15 ton in about 20. No different than my 8cfm fp. But I let it run longer, Key is your hoses and pulling cores, and just knowing what you're doing in the end. Fantastic pump. For resi this is more than enough for any system you would come across.

Totally agree with you!

Glad I could help, hope you like it! 😀

Thank you for mentioning the power adapter. I just recently picked one up. They where hot out when I purchased mines a few years ago.

Hey brother thanks for this pump review I truly appreciate it my man!! I had my doubts but after watching so many videos, I will buy it!
Thank you, I'm glad I could help!
Have you heard of the JB flex cordless pump? I wonder how that would compare to the commercial evacuations. Has more than double the oil capacity

What was the final vacuum rate ?
Sorry I missed your question, I stopped the pump at 350 microns
Since it’s navac I would rather use this only on mini splits

You know it’s the hoses not the pump eh
The hoses makes all the difference, the pump is convenient, no cord.
@@alittlebitofeverythinghome4333 For which refrigerants can this pump be used?

@@lenin1881 dah fuck? This is evacuating a system so doesn’t matter

Time is money, who wants to wait for that tiny pump to complete a vacuum. Myself i want to vacuum and test hold less than 30min.
Easy with this pump

Any hvac video: *has any tool that's not fieldpiece*
Fieldpiece fanboys in comments: "REEEEEEEEE"
Fieldpiece fanboys are worse than milwuakee fanboys
way to expensive, I rather go with fieldpiece or an eliminator, good review!
