But you'll find that repairs won't be so bad or disruptive, especially when you have the right specialists handling your issues.

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. A common practice of precaution, which you should always engage in, is to turn up your underfloor heating intermittently during 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. When installed correctly, electric underfloor heating can last for a long time without developing issues. 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.
Effecting the right settings through manual instructions will be sufficient to solve the problem if it's a setting issue. But when the thermostat brakes, it requires the help of a professional. 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. 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. Your home can be back to its comfortable state in no time if you experience any of these issues or some others not stated here.
Water underfloor heating comes with laid down pipes rather than electric cables and sheets. It is also called Hydronic underfloor heating. This system disperses heat through the warm water, which is circulated through the pipes. They are connected to a central boiler and controlled by a thermostat. This system warms up your home according to the type of flooring you have in place. 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. 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.
