While underfloor heating develops faults once in a while, it typically functions without issues for a long period at first. Your home can enjoy a long period of consistent warmth if you fit in underfloor heating which is up to standard. But you'll find that repairs won't be so bad or disruptive, especially when you have the right specialists handling your issues. We know you may be worried that your whole floor will need to be torn apart to conduct repairs. But you should know that the majority of underfloor heating issues are above ground.
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. Another problem that could affect your underfloor heating includes wrongly configured thermostats. A common practice of precaution, which you should always engage in, is to turn up your underfloor heating intermittently during 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. The cables are normally laid on an insulation board to improve energy efficiency. A thermostat regulates electric underfloor systems. When installed correctly, electric underfloor heating can last for a long time without developing issues. 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 configuration issue can be solved by inputting the correct settings from the manual. But a faulty thermostat will require the help of a repairman. 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. If the installation of your electric underfloor heating is done improperly, the floor sensor probe may be damaged. 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.
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. Water underfloor heating warms up your home according to the floor type you have in place. Their faults can be fully repaired by our specialists.
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.
