Leak detection and regassing in Prestatyn
In North Wales, an air-to-air system can be an efficient way to heat holiday homes and bungalows, with cooling as a bonus. If an older system in your Prestatyn home uses R22, replacement is usually the route, because it can no longer be recharged.
Flare joints are a frequent leak point on older split systems, so they are among the first things checked on a visit in Prestatyn. Prestatyn is about 26 miles from Wrexham and falls within our Clwyd coverage. That includes the LL19 postcode district.
