WARNING

Important Environmental Concerns

Scientific research has shown that certain man-made chemicals can
affect the earth’s naturally occurring stratospheric ozone layer when
released to the atmosphere. In particular, several of the identified
chemicals that may affect the ozone layer are refrigerants that contain
Chlorine, Fluorine and Carbon (CFCs) and those containing Hydrogen,
Chlorine, Fluorine and Carbon (HCFCs). Not all refrigerants containing
these compounds have the same potential impact to the environment.

Trane advocates the responsible handling of all refrigerants-including

industry replacements for CFCs such as HCFCs and HFCs.

Important Responsible Refrigerant Practices

Trane believesthat responsible refrigerant practices areimportant to the

environment, our customers, and the air conditioning industry. All
technicians who handle refrigerants must be certified.The Federal Clean
Air Act (Section 608) sets forth the requirements for handling,
reclaiming, recovering and recycling of certain refrigerants and the
equipment that is used in these service procedures. In addition, some
states or municipalities may have additional requirements that must
also be adhered to for responsible management of refrigerants. Know
the applicable laws and follow them.
