Leak detection and regassing in Auchterarder
Flare joints are a frequent leak point on older split systems, so they are among the first things checked on a visit in Auchterarder. Scottish summers are mild, so most systems here are chosen first for efficient heating, with cooling for warm spells.
If an older system in your Auchterarder home uses R22, replacement is usually the route, because it can no longer be recharged. Auchterarder sits around 13 miles from Perth, inside our Perth and Kinross area. That includes the PH3 postcode district.
