Quality underfloor heating will last for a long time before problems begin to occur.

If it comes to the worst, thermal imaging equipment will be used in finding the faulty points under your flooring, which will enable our technicians to mark out the exact location of the problem and fix it accordingly. Only the point of repair will be affected, and your floors can be replaced if your underfloor heating requires a solution underneath your floor. 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. Your thermostat configuration could also be responsible for some of your heating issues. 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. You should do this to avoid faults developing in your underfloor heating. It is also important to understand issues that may occur in the type of underfloor heating you have installed.
Electric underfloor heating is a complete system which comes with electric cables and mats which are installed under your floors. Insulation boards are normally set beneath the heating cables to ensure that the system will be energy-efficient. A thermostat controls the heat output and temperature of electric underfloor heating systems. They can last for a long time without developing issues when they are correctly installed. In the instance that they exhibit issues, however, some underlying causes could be at play. A common issue is an incorrect setting in the thermostat or a faulty thermostat.
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. Whatever the issue might be, (as there could be others), trust our proficient underfloor experts to get your electric underfloor heating functioning again.
With water underfloor heating, pipes, rather than cables or wires and insulators, are fitted under the floors. Your home is heated by the warm water circulated through these 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. If a problem arises within these systems, rest assured we can fit it effectively.
Issues that are commonly present in hydronic underfloor heating include faulty actuators; wrong thermostat configurations or faulty thermostats; loss of pressure on the system; pipes that are punctured, which can be repaired or fixed by our technicians; or airlocks in pipes. Other complex issues may arise, but rest assured that our technicians can solve any issue concerning water underfloor heating. Your floors won't be excessively torn apart, even if we have to fix an issue below ground. Only the affected floor region will be lifted and then replaced.
