A. All establishments that manufacture, repair, service or maintain any refrigeration or air conditioning unit or system shall adopt and implement a recycling system whereby the ozone-depleting compound used as a coolant in such refrigeration or air conditioning unit or system will not be released into the environment, but will be recaptured, reused and recycled. The unit used for such recapture and recycling shall meet the standards adopted by the Society of American Engineers and shall be approved by Underwriters Laboratory; and all persons operating such units shall be trained in their use.

B. No establishment shall sell any ozone-depleting compound for use as a coolant in a refrigeration or air conditioning unit or system to any other establishment that does not possess a recycling system.

C. No establishment shall dispose of or shall cause the disposal of any refrigeration or air conditioning unit or system either in conjunction with the disposal of another product, or in any other manner, without first recapturing and recycling any ozone-depleting compound used as a coolant in said unit or system, or without first ensuring such coolant will be recaptured and recycled.

D. No establishment shall sell Freon or any other ozone-depleting compound in containers intended for use by individuals for "do-it-yourself" refrigeration or air conditioning unit repair. (Ord. 6031-NS § 6, 1991)
