I have a

PORTER-CABLE 0.8 HP 6-Gallon 150 PSI Electric Air Compressor.

I want to create suction to pull air out of a line going to a swimming pool.

I am trying to seal a plastic pipe with glue and want to suck some glue into the gaps around the join.

How do I do this?

BTW, will I damage the air compressor if I get water inside.


Would a shopvac work instead?


I would think that it would work better--- It will suck by nature,
will move a whole lot more volume of air at a lower psi which is what
the op is trying to do.
