Leak detection and regassing in Peebles
If a system in Peebles has needed gas before, the original leak was probably never fixed. 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 Peebles home uses R22, replacement is usually the route, because it can no longer be recharged. Our Scottish Borders coverage takes in Peebles, about 15 miles from Galashiels. Homes in EH45 are all within our coverage.
