Leak detection and regassing in Dunstable
Low rainfall and long summer days in the East of England make south-facing rooms the first to overheat. Flare joints are a frequent leak point on older split systems, so they are among the first things checked on a visit in Dunstable.
If a system in Dunstable has needed gas before, the original leak was probably never fixed. Dunstable is about 5 miles from Luton and falls within our Bedfordshire coverage. We cover LU6 and the streets around them.
