Leak detection and regassing in Selkirk

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 Selkirk home uses R22, replacement is usually the route, because it can no longer be recharged.

If a system in Selkirk has needed gas before, the original leak was probably never fixed. Our Scottish Borders coverage takes in Selkirk, about 5 miles from Galashiels. That includes the TD7 postcode district.
