PROPOSITION 65 WARNING EXPLANATION

Champion Cooling Systems applies warning labels on our packaging containing our products regarding CA Prop 65. This warning is part of our effort to comply with the California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986 (known as “Proposition 65”). The warning does not mean that our products will necessarily cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm. While we believe our products are not harmful when used as designed, and we rely on our suppliers to help with this effort, we also provide these warnings to comply with Proposition 65. What is California Proposition 65? Proposition 65 is a far-reaching law and applies to any company that operates in California, sells products in California, or manufactures products that may be sold in or brought into California. Proposition 65 requires warnings to accompany any product that contains or may contain any of the chemicals appearing on the list administered by California’s Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA), a part of the California Environmental Protection Agency. The current list can be found here: https://oehha.ca.gov/proposition-65/proposition-65-list Why did Champion Cooling Systems decided to provide a warning? Proposition 65 imposes strict penalties for noncompliance. While California establishes “safe harbor numbers” for listed chemicals, the costs of individually testing products that Champion Cooling System manufactures and distributes is prohibitive (particularly when the list of chemicals is so expansive and subject to change on an annual basis). As a result of the steep penalties and because there is no penalty for providing an unnecessary warning, Champion Cooling Systems decided to provide the Proposition 65 notice out of an abundance of caution.
