Is ENVIRO-SAFE safe?
Yes! ENVIRO-SAFE is an “ENVIRONMENTALLY SAFE” organic, non-toxic, non-ozone depleting hydrocarbon compound with the following ratings: ISO 5149; BS 4434 & AS/NZS 1677. ENVIRO-SAFE refrigerants are hydrocarbon refrigerants which have been endorsed by Greenpeace and is in full compliance with the UN Montreal Protocol. (A $3,000,000.00 insurance policy is maintained to back the ENVIRO-SAFE quarantee. To date, no claims have ever been made against this policy.) Like most organic materials ENVIRO-SAFE is flammable, but its ignition temperature is 1585ºF at both 5 psi and 0 psi (which is better than the DuPont R-134a’s ignition temperature of 368ºF at 5 psi and 1411ºF at 0 psi). Nevertheless, a pine odor has been added to the product so that any leak in a refrigeration system can be readily detected. To locate the precise origin of a leak, it is recommended that a hydrocarbon detector be utilized. Most mid and higher priced conventional leak detectors will detect hydrocarbon refrigerants. In
