Which of the following should be recovered with current EPA-approved recovery devices?

Recovery devices in EPA 608 practice are used to remove refrigerants from appliances during servicing or disposal, so those devices are certified to handle refrigerants, not other substances. Ammonia and hydrogen are not addressed by these typical recovery devices for small appliances, and water is simply condensate, not a refrigerant. Since none of those substances are the refrigerants that EPA-approved recovery equipment is designed to recover, the correct choice is that none of the above should be recovered with current EPA-approved recovery devices.
