Leak detection and regassing in Altrincham
If a system in Altrincham has needed gas before, the original leak was probably never fixed. Damp North West weather makes the dehumidifying mode of a modern split system genuinely useful for much of the year.
If an older system in your Altrincham home uses R22, replacement is usually the route, because it can no longer be recharged. Our Greater Manchester coverage takes in Altrincham, about 8 miles from Manchester. Homes in WA14 are all within our coverage.
