Leak detection and regassing in Lochgilphead
Wind and salt air in the north of Scotland mean outdoor unit placement and protection need extra thought. If a system in Lochgilphead has needed gas before, the original leak was probably never fixed.
Flare joints are a frequent leak point on older split systems, so they are among the first things checked on a visit in Lochgilphead. Lochgilphead is about 26 miles from Oban and falls within our Argyll and Bute coverage. We cover PA31 and the streets around them.
