Leak detection and regassing in Blackwood
South Wales summers can be warm and humid, and winters damp, so a reversible system earns its keep all year. If a system in Blackwood has needed gas before, the original leak was probably never fixed.
If an older system in your Blackwood home uses R22, replacement is usually the route, because it can no longer be recharged. Blackwood lies roughly 19 miles from Bridgend, and we cover it as part of Mid Glamorgan. That includes the NP12 postcode district.
