IMPORTANT
CFC/HCFC Disposal
Some old refrigerators may have
a cooling system that used CFCs
or HCFCs (chlorofluorocarbons or
hydrochlorofluorocarbons). CFCs
and HCFCs are believed to harm
stratospheric ozone if released to the
atmosphere. Other refrigerants may
also cause harm to the environment if
released to the atmosphere.
If disposing of an old refrigerator,
make sure the refrigerant is removed
for proper disposal by a qualified
technician. Intentionally released
refrigerant may subject one to fines
and imprisonment under provisions of
environmental legislation.
