Refrigerant recovery and/or recycling equipment manufactured after ______ must be certified and labeled by an EPA approved equipment testing organization to meet EPA standards.

Certification of refrigerant recovery and recycling equipment is required to ensure devices meet EPA performance standards before they can be marketed or used. This requirement applies to equipment manufactured after a specific date, so the date marks when the labeling and certification rule went into effect. The correct date is November 15, 1993, because that’s when the EPA mandated that recovery equipment must be certified by an EPA-approved testing organization and labeled to show compliance with EPA standards. This certification helps guarantee the equipment can reliably recover refrigerants and minimize emissions. Dates prior to that do not reflect the regulatory threshold, and after that date the requirement specifically applies to equipment manufactured after November 15, 1993.
