Leak detection and regassing across Devon
Flare joints are a frequent leak point on older split systems, so they are among the first things checked on a visit in Plymouth. If an older system in your Plymouth home uses R22, replacement is usually the route, because it can no longer be recharged. Damp South West winters make the dehumidifying side of a heat pump almost as useful as its cooling.
Prices in Devon
Our South West England guide price for leak detection and regassing is £245–£995 leak find, repair and recharge, VAT included. That is close to the UK middle for this kind of work. If parts or extra work turn out to be needed, the engineer explains and prices them before going ahead. Typical Standard work (leak in pipework or valve, full recharge) lands around £395–£650 in this area.

The visit
Before booking, tell us the make and model and what the system is doing. We confirm the visit price, then the engineer arrives with the right equipment and, where possible, the right parts. We agree the visit price before we come. On the day the engineer checks the system, carries out the agreed work and talks you through anything they find.
