Leak detection and regassing in Penarth
In South and Mid Wales, efficient heating is often as important as cooling. If an older system in your Penarth home uses R22, replacement is usually the route, because it can no longer be recharged.
If a system in Penarth has needed gas before, the original leak was probably never fixed. Penarth is about 3 miles from Cardiff and falls within our South Glamorgan coverage. That includes the CF64 postcode district.
