Leak detection and regassing in Kirkby
In the North West, heating efficiency is often the main benefit, with summer cooling a welcome bonus. Flare joints are a frequent leak point on older split systems, so they are among the first things checked on a visit in Kirkby.
If an older system in your Kirkby home uses R22, replacement is usually the route, because it can no longer be recharged. Kirkby is about 6 miles from Liverpool and falls within our Merseyside coverage. Homes in L32 are all within our coverage.
