Leak detection and regassing in Longton
In the West Midlands, sizing for winter heating first and then checking summer cooling usually gives the best all-year system. If an older system in your Longton home uses R22, replacement is usually the route, because it can no longer be recharged.
If a system in Longton has needed gas before, the original leak was probably never fixed. Longton lies roughly 3 miles from Stoke-on-Trent, and we cover it as part of Staffordshire. We cover ST3 and the streets around them.
