Warnings and Cautions
Protecting the Environment
World environmental scientists have concluded, based on the best currently available
evidence, that ozone in our upper atmosphere is being reduced due to the release of CFC
(chlorofluorocarbon) fully halogenated compounds.
Trane urges that all HVAC servicers working on Trane equipment, or any manufacturer’s
products, make every effort to eliminate, if possible, or vigorously reduce the emission
of CFC, HCFC (halocarbon that contains fluorine, chlorine, carbon, and hydrogen), and
HFC (halocarbon that contains only fluorine, carbon, and hydrogen) refrigerants to the
atmosphere resulting from installation, operation, routine maintenance, or major service
on this equipment. Always act in a responsible manner to conserve refrigerants for
continued use even when acceptable alternatives are available.
Refrigerant used in any type of air-conditioning or refrigerating equipment should be
recovered for reuse, recovered and/or recycled for reuse, reprocessed (reclaimed), or
properly destroyed, whenever it is removed from equipment. Never release it to the
atmosphere!
