Leak detection and regassing in Royton
Damp North West weather makes the dehumidifying mode of a modern split system genuinely useful for much of the year. Flare joints are a frequent leak point on older split systems, so they are among the first things checked on a visit in Royton.
If an older system in your Royton home uses R22, replacement is usually the route, because it can no longer be recharged. Royton sits around 7 miles from Manchester, inside our Greater Manchester area. We cover OL2 and the streets around them.
