Leak detection and regassing in Whitstable
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 Whitstable home uses R22, replacement is usually the route, because it can no longer be recharged.
If a system in Whitstable has needed gas before, the original leak was probably never fixed. Whitstable sits around 23 miles from Maidstone, inside our Kent area. That includes the CT5 postcode district.
