Leak detection and regassing in Lofthouse
Flare joints are a frequent leak point on older split systems, so they are among the first things checked on a visit in Lofthouse. Across Yorkshire, an air-to-air system is a practical way to replace old electric heaters, with cooling for the hottest spells.
If an older system in your Lofthouse home uses R22, replacement is usually the route, because it can no longer be recharged. Our West Yorkshire coverage takes in Lofthouse, about 5 miles from Leeds. Postcode districts we cover here include WF3.
