Leak detection and regassing in Aston
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 Aston home uses R22, replacement is usually the route, because it can no longer be recharged.
Flare joints are a frequent leak point on older split systems, so they are among the first things checked on a visit in Aston. Our West Midlands coverage takes in Aston, about 1 mile from Birmingham. Coverage includes B6.
