Leak detection and regassing in Scunthorpe
In the East Midlands, one system that cools in summer and heats efficiently in winter makes good use of the investment. If an older system in your Scunthorpe home uses R22, replacement is usually the route, because it can no longer be recharged.
Flare joints are a frequent leak point on older split systems, so they are among the first things checked on a visit in Scunthorpe. Scunthorpe sits around 25 miles from Lincoln, inside our Lincolnshire area. Coverage includes DN15.
