    As per @Rolf Latham
    It takes a bit of work, but the recoverable material makes is worthwhile ;)
    Though they likely wont pay for the privilege as the labor required to seperate outweigh the reward :oops:

    We replaced a split system air conditioner.
    Installation deal included de-gassing and removal of the old unit.
