Underfloor heating can function for a long time before issues begin to arise. 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. 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. Through our many years of repairing underfloor heating, we have come to identify the main issues to include faulty actuators, bad wirings or insulators, pipes locked with air, and unevenly heated parts. Thermostat settings have also been a source of heating problems. 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. 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 heating wires will be placed over an insulation board to boost power-efficiency. A thermostat is responsible for adjusting and setting the temperature levels of the electric underfloor heating system. 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. We have noticed that thermostats are of primary concern with most electric underfloor heating.
Putting in the right settings (you can check the user manual of your system) may get your system working again, but in the instance that they are faulty, you should call in the experts. 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. If you experience any of these issues or others, trust our capable repairmen to get your home heated up again as soon as possible.
These systems are also known as Hydronic underfloor heating, and they come with pipes installed under the floor. Your home is heated by the warm water circulated through these pipes. The pipes are connected to a single boiler, and the temperature is controlled by a thermostat. 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.
