NNoottee:: In the USA, EPA Section 608 Certification is required to work on refrigeration systems. In the EU, local F-gas
Regulations must be observed when working on refrigeration systems.
At Therm King®, we rec gnize the need t preserve the envir nment and limit the p tential harm t the z ne layer
that can result fr m all wing refrigerant t escape int the atm sphere.
We strictly adhere t a p licy that pr m tes the rec very and limits the l ss f refrigerant int the atm sphere.
