You may experience problems with your underfloor heating, but usually only after a long period of use. This is especially true if you are utilising a quality heating system. And fixing the problems as they occur will give you longer periods of regular heat. Most homeowners tend to fret over the idea that their floors will need to come apart during repairs. But you should know that the majority of underfloor heating issues are above ground.
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. If there's a need to fix an underground issue, rest assured that the floor repairs required will be minimal. Most underfloor heating comes up with similar issues, namely air locked pipes, actuator issues, faulty or wrong wirings, and several cold spots. Incorrect settings in the thermostat could also cause heating problems. 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. 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 consists of laying electric heating sheets or electric cables within or beneath your floors. The cables always come installed on an insulation board to utilise energy efficiently. A thermostat regulates these systems. They can last for a long time without developing issues when they are correctly installed. 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. Installation that was not up to standard may lead to the floor sensor probe becoming faulty. A technician can simply work to repair it, but if it is too far gone, it will be replaced. Our technicians can get your electric underfloor heating functioning again if any of these issues, or others, come up.
Commonly called Hydronic underfloor heating, these systems comprise the use of pipes under your floors. Warm water goes around these pipes to heat up your home. The pipes are connected to a single boiler, and the temperature is controlled by a thermostat. Your flooring will affect how your space is heated by this system. Problems that occur with this system can also be solved proficiently by our professionals.
Your water underfloor heating could be faced with actuator issues, air-locked or bleeding pipes, thermostats with wrong settings or faults, or a system that has lost its pressure. Other complex issues may arise, but rest assured that our technicians can solve any issue concerning water underfloor heating. 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.
