Leak detection and regassing in Thurso
If an older system in your Thurso home uses R22, replacement is usually the route, because it can no longer be recharged. In the Highlands, Islands and the North East of Scotland, systems are sized for cold winter days first.
If a system in Thurso has needed gas before, the original leak was probably never fixed. Thurso is about 81 miles from Inverness and falls within our Highland coverage. Postcode districts we cover here include KW14.
