hey Tim where do you bring your recovered freon? Does autozone take it? Seems like they should since they sell freon like they do with motor oil.

Honest answer. Was never an issue. We screen refrigerant before reclaiming. Our machine was a real recovery and recharge unit. So any refrigerant we reclaimed was reused.
