Leak detection and regassing in East Cowes

Flare joints are a frequent leak point on older split systems, so they are among the first things checked on a visit in East Cowes. In the South East, loft rooms and glazed extensions can climb well above the outside temperature on a sunny afternoon.

If an older system in your East Cowes home uses R22, replacement is usually the route, because it can no longer be recharged. East Cowes sits around 4 miles from Newport, Isle of Wight, inside our Isle of Wight area. That includes the PO32 postcode district.
