Air Conditioners and Heat Pumps are collected over the summer and taken apart throughout the winter, recycling every component.
Even the oil from your compressor is collected for reuse.
Old Appliances are unloaded and once all reusable components are removed and collected, the gutted appliances are collected in large bins and picked up daily to be recycled.
Recycling your old refrigerant helps protect the atmosphere. Recycling reduces the need for land filling and incineration, as well as saving energy and conserving natural resources.
