Leak detection and regassing in Newtownabbey
If an older system in your Newtownabbey home uses R22, replacement is usually the route, because it can no longer be recharged. Damp Northern Ireland winters make a heat pump's dehumidifying mode useful well beyond the summer.
If a system in Newtownabbey has needed gas before, the original leak was probably never fixed. Newtownabbey sits around 4 miles from Belfast, inside our County Antrim area. That includes the BT36 and BT37 postcode districts.
