Butler Cares About the Environment!

Butler Heating & Air Conditioning understands the importance of protecting the environment. That is why we have taken several steps to ensure that we are doing so. On December 17, 1963, the Clean Air Act was enacted by Congress. As of July 1, 1992, Section 608 was added to “prohibit individuals from intentionally venting ozone-depleting substances used as refrigerants (generally CFC’s, HCFC’s and HFC’s) into the atmosphere while maintaining, servicing, repairing or disposing of air conditioning or refrigeration equipment (appliances).” All of our technicians are EPA certified, and we recycle all refrigerant that we recover from any system. This alone has a huge impact on the environment, but we want to go above and beyond in our recycling efforts. Going Green at [Butler Heating & Air Conditioning includes but is not limited to:
