Heating, Ventilation, and A/C on the Street Corner
One other option is to purchase a current machine from a qualified Heating, Ventilation, and A/C dealer that will haul the outdated machine away and reward you with a small discount or rebate
Have you ever had the experience of driving along and seeing an old, but relatively scrub sofa that someone has disposed of on the curb? After a quick inspection and a “sniff test”, that used sofa may end up in your basement rec-room for your youngsters and pets to destroy instead of the current furniture in your kitchen. I’ve seen several USble items on street corners, but I’ve rarely seen anything reuseable related to Heating, Ventilation, and A/C. The most apparent reason people don’t dispose of Heating, Ventilation, and A/C units on street corners is that it’s illegal. It also has some value with scrap metal and perhaps some USble spare parts. The problem of turning that scrap into currency is that the defunct Heating, Ventilation, and A/C machine must be disposed of properly to eliminate the injure that HCFC and HFC refrigerants do to the Earth’s ozone layer. The legal options at this point are to find a qualified scrap yard that follows EPA Heating, Ventilation, and A/C disposal instruction. There is no profit to be made but at least the Heating, Ventilation, and A/C machine is no longer your problem. If there is any life in your outdated Heating, Ventilation, and A/C unit, then consider donating it to a worthy cause. At least you will have a small tax deduction if you file an itemized return with the IRS. One other option is to purchase a current machine from a qualified Heating, Ventilation, and A/C dealer that will haul the outdated machine away and reward you with a small discount or rebate. The last option is to have your outdated machine refurbished but this may cause troubles later with the phase-out of the chlorine-based refrigerants. The best program is to keep your existing program away from the scrap heap with correct repair and cleaning by a qualified Heating, Ventilation, and A/C serviceman.
