You may experience problems with your underfloor heating, but usually only after a long period of use. You may not require repairs for many years if you have a quality system installed. 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 you should know that the majority of underfloor heating issues are above ground.
If your underfloor heating has a fault beneath your floors, the root of the problem will be accurately located via our thermal imaging equipment. If a replacement or repair is to be made beneath your floor, only the affected point will be targeted. Common issues with underfloor heating which we have recognised over the years include faulty actuators, bad cables and wiring, air locked and worn-out pipes, and some areas lacking heat. Thermostat settings have also been a source of heating problems. A preventive measure for faults, which you should always put in practice, is to ensure that you run your underfloor heating from time to time during seasons where you don't need them, for instance, summer. Leaving your heating systems off for a long period may cause valves and pipes to stick. Depending on the type of underfloor heating you have installed, some specific faults may be present.
Electric underfloor heating comes with electric cables or sheets which are laid under or within your floor. They consist of insulation boards which serve as underlayers to the electric heating cables. A thermostat is responsible for adjusting and setting the temperature levels of the electric underfloor heating system. They can last for a long time without developing issues when they are correctly installed. But when they aren't producing enough heat or are completely faulty, several factors may be responsible. We have noticed that thermostats are of primary concern with most electric underfloor heating.
A technician can help with a faulty thermostat, but you can input the correct configurations with the help of the manual. The heating cable could be damaged or cut during installation, in which case our technicians will simply fix the issue with a heat shrink or by using straight-through crimps when they identify the issue. The floor sensor probe could be faulty as a result of poor installation. In the instance that it needs replacement, this can be done in no time by a qualified specialist. Our experts are highly trained to get your electric underfloor heating back to normal if any of these faults, and others not mentioned here, occur.
Hydronic underfloor heating, as it is more technically known, involves the use of pipes laid beneath your floor. The pipes transport warm water around, which is responsible for giving your home warmth. A thermostat controls the system, and the pipes are connected to a boiler. The type of floor that you have in your building determines how this system warms up your rooms. Our repairers can also fix any kind of issues with these systems.
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 issues may be responsible for your heating system, not producing adequate heat or not working at all. Nevertheless, our experts are always up to the task. 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.
