What you’re seeing in this video

A tech with a long beard, his hair in a bun, stands in a front yard in a black SwiftPro hoodie and cap beside a yellow wheeled machine, while another tech kneels at the side of the house.

Inside, the clamp meter comes out at an air handler control panel. Outside, a tech with a tattooed forearm drives screws into the top panel of an outdoor condenser. Each shot is a different tool at a different stage of a job, and the joke is that one short video can't hold them all.

Why it matters in your house

  • A tech who shows up with digital gauges, a micron gauge and a meter can measure the problem instead of guessing at it. Ask what readings they took.
  • The basic HVAC tools list: cordless drill and impact driver, nut drivers, refrigerant gauges, a multimeter or clamp meter, a vacuum pump, tubing cutters, brazing gear and a leak detector.
  • Good tools aren't the whole story, but a tech who keeps them organized and clean usually treats your house the same way.

What tools do HVAC techs use?

Daily: an impact driver, nut drivers, refrigerant gauges, a clamp meter and a thermometer. For installs: a vacuum pump with a micron gauge, a recovery machine, tubing cutters, a brazing torch with nitrogen, and a level. Add a leak detector, a manometer for gas pressure and coil cleaning gear, and that's most of the van.
