Leak detection and regassing in Porthcawl
If an older system in your Porthcawl home uses R22, replacement is usually the route, because it can no longer be recharged. Wet South Wales winters make a heat pump's quiet, even heating and dehumidifying mode useful well beyond summer.
If a system in Porthcawl has needed gas before, the original leak was probably never fixed. Porthcawl lies roughly 6 miles from Bridgend, and we cover it as part of Mid Glamorgan. Coverage includes CF36.
