Notes on Gas Stoves <br />Mercury switches and thermal switches are in 19/ us models and older. <br />Two aluminum lines down the back will lead to one or more mercury switches. <br />All gas stoves should have a mercury switch. <br />If the conduits are steel, that is, they pass the magnet test, there is mercury vapor in the <br />lines. Remove the entire line withouit opening it. <br />Place mercury switches and lines in the 5 -gallon plastic container. <br />There is a mercury switch by the broiler. <br />Look for a capacitor. <br />Notes on Electric Stoves <br />Check inside and in drawers for hidden chemicals <br />Stoves with a fluorescent panel light will have a ballast behind. <br />There should be no mercury switches in an electric stove. <br />Look for a capacitor. <br />Notes on Refrigerators <br />Keep the drained refrigerant oil separate from other gear oil (from washers) because it <br />contains hydrocarbonsfrom the Freon. <br />The waste oil and the Freon will be removed from the site by the vendor. <br />Notes on Dryers <br />Gas Dryers: Look for the copper capillary tube with the sealed unit. This is a temperature <br />control and could be a mercury switch. <br />There will be capacitor(s) <br />in dryers. <br />If there is no contact switch at the door of the dryer, look for a mercury switch. <br />Notes on Microwaves <br />Unscrew the outside back and then the inside to access the control area. Remove <br />capacitor. <br />
