While underfloor heating develops faults once in a while, it typically functions without issues for a long period at first. This is especially true if you are utilising a quality heating system. But you'll find that repairs won't be so bad or disruptive, especially when you have the right specialists handling your issues. You may be distressed about the state of your floors when it comes to repairs. But most underfloor heating evaluations and repairs happen on the surface.
In the case that the issue is coming from under your floors, the precise location of the fault will be pinpointed by our thermal imaging equipment. If a replacement or repair is to be made beneath your floor, only the affected point will be targeted. In our experience, we have found that issues with underfloor heating systems tend to consist of faulty wirings, problematic actuators, worn-out pumps, air-locked pipes, and most times, unevenly heated areas. Your thermostat configuration could also be responsible for some of your heating issues. During the summer, make sure to run your underfloor heating once in a while to get water circulated throughout the pipes. Being idle for so long may cause certain issues to occur. Your underfloor heating may be electric or the hydronic variant. You should get to know which issues will likely come up with each.
Electric underfloor heating comes with electric cables or sheets which are laid under or within your floor. The cables are normally laid on an insulation board to improve energy efficiency. A thermostat controls the heat output and temperature of electric underfloor heating systems. These underfloor systems lack problems for a long time after installation, particularly when they have been installed to a high standard. When they do develop issues, however, this may be down to various factors. Incorrect settings in an electric underfloor thermostat or a faulty component are commonly the reason behind the issues.
A technician can help with a faulty thermostat, but you can input the correct configurations with the help of the manual. 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. A new sensor probe can be installed to get things back in order. Whatever the issue might be, (as there could be others), trust our proficient underfloor experts to get your electric underfloor heating functioning again.
These systems are also known as Hydronic underfloor heating, and they come with pipes installed under the floor. This system disperses heat through the warm water, which is circulated through the pipes. A thermostat controls the system, and the pipes are connected to a boiler. Water underfloor heating warms up your home according to the floor type you have in place. 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. Whatever the issue, even if they are more challenging than the above problems, they can be handled fully by our excellent technicians. In the worst-case scenario where an issue needs to be rectified beneath your floor, be confident that we will only raise the exact point of the fault and your floor can be repaired to look as it was.
