[DML] Recapturing Freon (R134a)

["content22207" <brobertson@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The subject of recapturing freon has come up in this Group in the past. 

Regarding R-134a:

At a DeLo gathering this weekend, I discovered those cans of
"compressed air" used to clean computer equipment (which I don't use
BTW) themselves contain R-134a! 1,1,1,2 Tetrafluoroethane (CAS
811-97-2). There's no difference between venting R-134a while doing
your own A/C work and spraying dust off your computer!

R-12 is of course a different matter altogether.
