12.1.

General

12.1.1. Reclaiming the system refrigerant charge is required on systems before system removal, after an
accidental line break, component failure, or when the system has excessive leaks. Due to the chemical
nature of the refrigerant, every precaution must be taken to protect the service personnel from
accidental exposure to the refrigerant. Follow all service precautions previously outlined.
WARNING: SERVICE TECHNICIANS ARE ADVISED TO OBSERVE STANDARD SAFETY
PRECAUTIONS, SUCH AS WEARING PERSONAL SAFETY GEAR, TO PREVENT INJURY WHILE
PERFORMING SERVICE TO THE UNIT.
CAUTION: SERVICE TECHNICIANS MUST PREVENT CONTAMINATION OF INTERNAL SYSTEM
PLUMBING DURING ANY SERVICING AND/OR MAINTENANCE OPERATION. THIS INCLUDES NOT
ALLOWING THE RECEIVER DRYER TO BE EXPOSED TO ATMOSPHERIC CONDITIONS FOR ANY
LENGTH OF TIME. ALL PLUMBING LINES SHOULD REMAIN CAPPED WHENEVER POSSIBLE DURING
THE SERVICING OF THE SYSTEM.
WARNING: DUE TO THE EVER INCREASING NUMBER OF ALTERNATE REFRIGERANTS BEING
INTRODUCED ON THE MARKET, EXTREME CARE MUST BE TAKEN TO PREVENT THEIR USE IN THIS
SYSTEM. ONLY R-134A REFREFRIGERANT IS APPROVED FOR USE IN THIS AIR CONDITIONING
