Leak detection and regassing across London

If an older system in your Westminster 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 Westminster. London's dense streets hold heat overnight, so top-floor flats and loft rooms often stay warm long after sunset.

How much does leak detection and regassing cost in London?

Our London guide range is £325–£1,295 leak find, repair and recharge, including VAT.

Indefinitely, if the leak was properly repaired. Sealed systems should not lose refrigerant.
