Leak detection and regassing in Portadown
If an older system in your Portadown home uses R22, replacement is usually the route, because it can no longer be recharged. Northern Ireland's mild, damp climate makes efficient heating and dehumidifying the main benefits for most homes.
Flare joints are a frequent leak point on older split systems, so they are among the first things checked on a visit in Portadown. Portadown is about 3 miles from Craigavon and falls within our County Armagh coverage. Coverage includes BT62 and BT63.
