How Beer Pumps Work. Beer pumps themselves are powered by high-pressure gas or compressed air that does not come into contact with the beer. Most retailers power their beer pumps with CO2 ; in these cases, the pump exhaust CO2 gas must be vented outside the cooler or building to avoid CO2 buildup and asphyxiation.
