A vapor phase rework station and methods for reworking a circuit board to remove and replace components soldered thereto. A nozzle is disposed over the target component and vapor is communicated from a vapor source to the interior volume of the nozzle. As the vapor heats the solder holding the target component to the circuit board, the vapor condenses within the interior volume. The condensed vapor is suctioned from the interior volume of the nozzle. A component gripping tool grips the target component and withdraws it from the circuit board. The reverse operation is performed to reflow the solder to attach a new component to the circuit board in the area from which the target component was previously removed.
