Leak detection and regassing in Horfield
Flare joints are a frequent leak point on older split systems, so they are among the first things checked on a visit in Horfield. Coastal breezes help, but inland South West towns and glazed rooms still see uncomfortable peaks.
If an older system in your Horfield home uses R22, replacement is usually the route, because it can no longer be recharged. We cover Horfield as part of Bristol. Homes in BS7 are all within our coverage.
