00joeindastarb0 Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 Most places will empty it for free or a small fee.You can do it yourself but if anyone reports you it can carry a heavy fine as its harmful to the enviroment. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Flaminsam Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 Be warned you can be fined up to £10k just for releasing the gas to atmosphere. Get it removed at a garage. If you get any on you aswel it can cause frost bite. Get a blast and you will prob loose a finger. Its nasty stuff. Don't mess with it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
