Leak detection and regassing in Cowbridge
Flare joints are a frequent leak point on older split systems, so they are among the first things checked on a visit in Cowbridge. Wet South Wales winters make a heat pump's quiet, even heating and dehumidifying mode useful well beyond summer.
If an older system in your Cowbridge home uses R22, replacement is usually the route, because it can no longer be recharged. We cover Cowbridge as part of South Glamorgan, roughly 11 miles from Cardiff. Homes in CF71 are all within our coverage.
