    Why don't you find someone in or around Sarasota County that is certified to recover refrigerant and work a deal with them to sell them the units. I'm pretty sure 1956 is in Florida, not sure the general area, but know that he deals with A/Cs.

    Well, I chopped those big boyz apart and separated the loot. Four big al and cu coils got me $45. The motors got me $10. the shred got me another $10 and I still have the ICW and the copper turns. I went in and the guy at the scale tells me I need to get the okay for the coils, so I go in. I show the gal a receipt for the tear out and install and she says I need a company letterhead. I pull off the front sheet with my co name and address and she lights up and tell me that this changes everything. She did not know I had a business. She filled out some paperwork and signed, I signed and she notarized and she told me I am good to go. I can scrap all the AC's I find with no questions asked.

    Woot! Woot!

    My good sir, that would be far to easy. Easier to just release and go. /end sarcasm

    This is why I got folks who will recover for me if necessary. I keep saying I'll get the type one license for appliances an such but I get distracted doing other things, an said buddy doesn't mind the wee bit of work.

    Sirscrapalot - Don't do stupid things an ya ain't gotta worry about nobody snitching ya out. - Not me, but I'll take the credit.
