Safety Information
Hydrocarbon refrigerants are flammable and must be handled only by qualified, trained, or experienced technicians. Safety regulations and standards should always be followed.
Like petrol and other volatile substances, refrigerants should never be released near ignition sources. HyChill refrigerants include a distinctive “rotting cabbage” odour to assist in leak detection, though the scent may fade over time.
