Underfloor heating can function for a long time before issues begin to arise. This is especially true if you are utilising a quality heating system. But repairing your system when the need calls for it, through the right experts, will ensure that you continue to enjoy your warmth and comfort. You may be distressed about the state of your floors when it comes to repairs. However, most repair works are done without touching your floor.
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. Sometimes, there may be issues with the configuration on your thermostat, or other timing or programming equipment you have in place. During the summer, make sure to run your underfloor heating once in a while to get water circulated throughout the pipes. Leaving your heating systems off for a long period may cause valves and pipes to stick. Your underfloor heating may be electric or the hydronic variant. You should get to know which issues will likely come up with each.
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. These systems are controlled by a thermostat. These underfloor systems lack problems for a long time after installation, particularly when they have been installed to a high standard. But when they aren't producing enough heat or are completely faulty, several factors may be responsible. Incorrect settings in an electric underfloor thermostat or a faulty component are commonly the reason behind the issues.
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. 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. Poor installation may cause another issue with the floor sensor probe. It could be repaired by a specialist or replaced. Our technicians can get your electric underfloor heating functioning again if any of these issues, or others, come up.
These systems are also known as Hydronic underfloor heating, and they come with pipes installed under the floor. Warm water goes around these pipes to heat up your home. A boiler, which is controlled by a thermostat, heats up the water. The type of floor that you have in your building determines how this system warms up your rooms. Problems that occur with this system can also be solved proficiently by our professionals.
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. Whatever the issue, even if they are more challenging than the above problems, they can be handled fully by our excellent technicians. Repairing a faulty component beneath your floor doesn't necessarily entail tearing it up to bring out the entire system. We will simply work to get it fixed at the precise location of the problem.
