Leak detection and regassing in Carlisle
If an older system in your Carlisle home uses R22, replacement is usually the route, because it can no longer be recharged. North West summers are cooler, so many systems here earn their keep as efficient heaters, with cooling for the warmest weeks.
Flare joints are a frequent leak point on older split systems, so they are among the first things checked on a visit in Carlisle. We cover Carlisle and the rest of Cumbria, including Barrow-in-Furness and Kendal. That includes the CA1 postcode district.
