Leak detection and regassing in Castlereagh

In Northern Ireland, homes on oil or electric heating can look at air-to-air systems for efficient warmth. Flare joints are a frequent leak point on older split systems, so they are among the first things checked on a visit in Castlereagh.

If an older system in your Castlereagh home uses R22, replacement is usually the route, because it can no longer be recharged. Our County Antrim coverage takes in Castlereagh, about 2 miles from Belfast. We cover BT5 and BT6 and the streets around them.
