Leak detection and regassing in Bury St Edmunds
Long sunny spells in the East of England put conservatories and top-floor rooms under real pressure. Flare joints are a frequent leak point on older split systems, so they are among the first things checked on a visit in Bury St Edmunds.
If an older system in your Bury St Edmunds home uses R22, replacement is usually the route, because it can no longer be recharged. We cover Bury St Edmunds as part of Suffolk, roughly 23 miles from Ipswich. Coverage includes IP33.
