Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), along with other chlorine- and bromine-containing compounds, have been implicated in the accelerated depletion of ozone in the Earth's stratosphere. CFCs were developed in the early 1930s and are used in a variety of industrial, commercial, and household applications. Many applications include as coolants for commercial and home refrigeration units, aerosol propellants, electronic cleaning solvents, and blowing agents.
Pro-Teck will provide certified technicians according to EPA Regulations as required by 40CFR Part 82, Subpart F to utilize a self-contained, on-site refrigerant recovery vacuum system to properly remove and dispose of Chlorofluorocarbons.
After the CFCs are recovered, appliances are orange striped and labeled "All CFCs have been recovered in accordance with the Clean Air Act (CAA) and EPA Regulations." A certification letter is supplied by Pro-Teck detailing the recovery of the Chlorofluorocarbons.
Recovered CFCs are tested in an off premise lab and transferred into larger DOT approved containers for transportation to an EPA certified refrigerant reclamation facility; all of which the professionals at Pro-Teck are fully trained to assist with your Chlorofluorocarbons disposal. |
