If a liquid refrigerant system (air conditioning) is used, wear eye and face protection, and wrap a cloth around the fittings before removing. Liquid refrigerant can cause serious eye and skin injuries.
WARNING
To protect the environment, liquid refrigerant systems must be properly emptied and filled using equipment that prevents the release of refrigerant gas into the atmosphere. Federal law requires capturing and recycling the refrigerant.
For environmental protection, federal regulations require that refrigerants must be recycled and not vented into the atmosphere. Check local regulations for capturing and recycling the refrigerant.
