Leak detection and regassing in Ipswich
Low rainfall and long summer days in the East of England make south-facing rooms the first to overheat. Flare joints are a frequent leak point on older split systems, so they are among the first things checked on a visit in Ipswich.
If an older system in your Ipswich home uses R22, replacement is usually the route, because it can no longer be recharged. We cover Ipswich and the rest of Suffolk, including Lowestoft and Bury St Edmunds. Postcode districts we cover here include IP1, IP3 and IP4.
