I don't think vacuuming is necessary. You can purge the air out of the pipe, this is more effective and practical than vacuum.

Yup, my installer purge the refrigerant pipe and the water discharge pipe too

Wait, how do you REMOVE air out of the pipes and the water discharge pipes without going through the VACUUMING process?

The current generation should be R32..

Purging is the short cut method that many aircond installers will use to 'remove additional substance and gases from the system' .... though I am not sure if there's any scenario where its a sufficient / valid method

Thanks. I went through the aircon's manual which I want to purchase and it did mention about vacuuming:
