Mastercool HVAC Tools at HVAC Shop

Mastercool has built a global reputation for tough, technician-focused HVAC/R gear – the kind of tools that survive daily service work, not just the odd call-out. This collection brings together our in-stock Mastercool range for Australian fridgies, mechanics and HVAC contractors who want reliable manifolds, vacuum pumps, recovery units and tube tools on the job.

Well-chosen tools don’t just make life easier; they support correct charging, evacuation and commissioning, which in turn helps system performance and energy efficiency, especially in commercial buildings where HVAC can be a major energy user.

Why choose Mastercool tools at HVAC Shop?

• Built for trade use – Mastercool designs HVAC products specifically around working technician feedback: manifolds, vacuum pumps, leak detection, measure-and-test instruments and tubing tools.
• Deep local range – We stock a wide Mastercool range across gauges, pumps, hoses, recovery units, flushing gear and spares so you can kit out a van or workshop from one supplier.
• Fast Aussie fulfilment – Products ship from within Australia with GST invoices and local support if you need help matching tools to your jobs.
• Compliance-first approach – We promote tools and practices that support safe, compliant refrigerant handling in line with Australian codes of practice and licensing requirements.

Key Mastercool categories we stock

Refrigerant gauges & manifolds

Analogue and digital manifold sets for common refrigerants including R410A, R32, R22, R134a and R404A, with gauge protectors and spare parts. Ideal for commissioning, diagnostics and charging on split systems, VRF and light commercial jobs.

Charging & refrigerant scales

Digital and high-precision charging scales sized for typical HVAC/R cylinders. Accurate weighing supports correct charges, reduced call-backs and more efficient systems over the life of the plant.

Vacuum pumps

Dual-stage Mastercool pumps sized from small service units through to higher CFM workshop models, including spark-free options suitable for use with R32 and other A2L refrigerants when installed and used within WHS guidance.

Recovery units & accessories

Refrigerant recovery machines, hoses and core tools to support safe recovery and decommissioning work on RAC systems, aligned with Australian refrigerant handling codes of practice.

Tube tools & benders

Hydraulic flaring kits, eccentric flaring tools, ratchet and lever benders, and compact cutters for copper and soft tubing. Handy both for on-roof installs and in tight plantrooms where clean, repeatable joints matter.

How to choose the right Mastercool tool

1. Match the refrigerant and pressures
   Confirm refrigerants (e.g. R32, R410A, R290, R600a) and maximum working pressure on the individual product page before purchase and use.
2. Size tools to the work you actually do
   Choose pump CFM and scale capacity based on the typical system sizes you service – domestic-only work often needs less capacity than light-commercial or VRF work.
3. Think about workflow and ergonomics
   Bluetooth scales, quick-coupler hoses and compact tube tools can significantly speed up repetitive tasks, especially for mobile techs running multiple calls per day.
4. Plan for serviceability
   Where available, consider tools that have replaceable O-rings, gaskets and lenses so you can maintain them rather than replace the whole unit.

Who this Mastercool range suits

• Licenced HVAC/R technicians who need day-in, day-out tools for air conditioning, refrigeration and heat pump work.
• Automotive A/C specialists charging and evacuating passenger and light commercial vehicles.
• Facilities and building services teams maintaining plant where HVAC is a major part of the base-building load.
• Apprentices and trade students building a kit with proven gear that will last beyond the first few years in the trade.

Safety, licensing and refrigerant compliance (Australia)

Refrigerant handling licence – In Australia, anyone working with RAC equipment where fluorocarbon refrigerant could be emitted (installing, servicing, commissioning, decommissioning or decanting) must hold an ARCtick Refrigerant Handling Licence or be working under one.

Codes of practice – The Australia and New Zealand Refrigerant Handling Code of Practice 2025 sets mandatory and best-practice guidelines for stationary and automotive RAC work and should be followed whenever you’re using tools from this range.

Flammable refrigerants (e.g. R32, R290, R600a) – When using Mastercool equipment with flammable refrigerants, follow WHS guidance from WorkSafe and industry bodies such as AIRAH, including ventilation, ignition control and competency requirements.

These tools are designed to support compliant work – but they do not replace the need for licenced, competent technicians and adherence to all relevant Australian standards and regulations.

FAQs – Mastercool tools at HVAC Shop

Which Mastercool tools are most popular with Australian HVAC technicians?

Our biggest movers are dual-stage vacuum pumps, manifold gauge sets (especially R32/R410A compatible models), high-precision charging scales and tube flaring/bending kits. These cover the bulk of day-to-day service and install work in air conditioning and refrigeration.

Are Mastercool gauges, hoses and pumps suitable for R32 and other new-generation refrigerants?

Many current Mastercool manifolds, hoses and pumps are designed for use with R32/R410A and other newer refrigerants, but compatibility is always product-specific. Check the refrigerant list and working pressures on the individual product page and follow relevant flammable refrigerant safety guidance where applicable.

Do I need a licence to buy or use these tools?

You don’t need a licence just to buy tools. However, if you’re installing, servicing, commissioning or decommissioning RAC equipment containing fluorocarbon refrigerant, you must hold a valid ARCtick Refrigerant Handling Licence or be working under one, and you must follow the Refrigerant Handling Code of Practice.

Do you ship Mastercool tools to regional and remote areas?

Yes. HVAC Shop ships Australia-wide, including regional centres and many remote locations. Shipping times vary by carrier and distance, but we regularly send Mastercool gear to trades working outside the capital cities.

Can these tools help improve HVAC energy efficiency?

Indirectly, yes. Correct evacuation, leak-free flares, accurate refrigerant charges and reliable recovery all support better system performance, fewer call-backs and lower energy waste over the life of the equipment – especially in commercial buildings where HVAC is a major energy user.
