Leak detection and regassing in Paisley
In central and southern Scotland, heat pump heating is usually the main reason to install, especially in homes on electric heating. If a system in Paisley has needed gas before, the original leak was probably never fixed.
If an older system in your Paisley home uses R22, replacement is usually the route, because it can no longer be recharged. As well as Paisley itself, our Renfrewshire and Inverclyde coverage takes in Greenock, Newton Mearns and the towns around them. Homes in PA1 and PA2 are all within our coverage.

It is a touch below the UK middle, as trade rates in Central and Southern Scotland tend to be. The price depends mostly on how many indoor units there are and how easy the outdoor unit is to reach.
