Underfloor heating can function for a long time before issues begin to arise.

But repairing your system when the need calls for it, through the right experts, will ensure that you continue to enjoy your warmth and comfort. One of the greatest concerns we have experienced is that the problem might be beneath your floor. But most underfloor heating evaluations and repairs happen on the surface.
In extreme cases, our technicians will use sophisticated thermal imaging devices to pinpoint the exact spot that is faulty. There will be minimal disruption to your flooring if we have to make repairs under your floors. We have fixed underfloor heating for many years and have discovered that most of the issues lie in bad wiring, faulty actuators, worn out and air-locked pipes, as well as unevenly warmed up zones. Sometimes, there may be issues with the configuration on your thermostat, or other timing or programming equipment you have in place. You should try your best to switch on your underfloor heating periodically during the summer. If your underfloor heating remains for a long period without being warmed up, some problems may arise. Your underfloor heating may be electric or the hydronic variant. You should get to know which issues will likely come up with each.
With electric underfloor heating, electric wires and sheets are fitted underneath your floors. Insulation boards are normally set beneath the heating cables to ensure that the system will be energy-efficient. These systems are controlled by a thermostat. Electric underfloor heating normally has a long lifespan, absent of problems, when their installations are perfectly done. Various elements could be responsible if these systems somehow become problematic. Incorrect settings in an electric underfloor thermostat or a faulty component are commonly the reason behind the issues.
A configuration issue can be solved by inputting the correct settings from the manual. But a faulty thermostat will require the help of a repairman. One or more wires may be cut or damaged when your system is being installed. This issue can be fixed by connecting the wires again with the proper equipment. Installation that was not up to standard may lead to the floor sensor probe becoming faulty. Getting this issue solved is a simple case of fitting a new sensor probe. If you experience any of these issues or others, trust our capable repairmen to get your home heated up again as soon as possible.
These systems are also known as Hydronic underfloor heating, and they come with pipes installed under the floor. The pipes transport warm water around, which is responsible for giving your home warmth. A boiler, which is controlled by a thermostat, heats up the water. Your flooring will affect how your space is heated by this system. Problems that occur with this system can also be solved proficiently by our professionals.
Common problems associated with wet underfloor heating include airlocks in pipes, which can be fixed by re-pressuring the system; punctured pipes, where our repairmen can replace the pipe for you; faulty actuators; problematic thermostats or incorrect thermostat settings; and pressure loss in the system. Other complex issues may arise, but rest assured that our technicians can solve any issue concerning water underfloor heating. On the rare occasion that part of your flooring needs to be lifted to perform a repair, rest assured that we'll only be working around the affected spot and your floor can be furnished to look the same again.
