While underfloor heating develops faults once in a while, it typically functions without issues for a long period at first. This is especially true if you are utilising a quality heating system. 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 most underfloor heating evaluations and repairs happen on the surface.
If your underfloor heating has a fault beneath your floors, the root of the problem will be accurately located via our thermal imaging equipment. There will be minimal disruption to your flooring if we have to make repairs under your floors. 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. Sometimes, there may be issues with the configuration on your thermostat, or other timing or programming equipment you have in place. You should try your best to switch on your underfloor heating periodically during the summer. If your underfloor heating remains for a long period without being warmed up, some problems may arise. It is also important to understand issues that may occur in the type of underfloor heating you have installed.
With electric underfloor heating, electric wires and sheets are fitted underneath your floors. Insulation boards are normally set beneath the heating cables to ensure that the system will be energy-efficient. These systems are controlled by a thermostat. Electric underfloor heating normally has a long lifespan, absent of problems, when their installations are perfectly done. Various elements could be responsible if these systems somehow become problematic. 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. 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. 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.
Hydronic underfloor heating, as it is more technically known, involves the use of pipes laid beneath your floor. Your home is heated by the warm water circulated through these pipes. A boiler, which is controlled by a thermostat, heats up the water. Water underfloor heating warms up your home according to the floor type you have in place. Problems that occur with this system can also be solved proficiently by our professionals.
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. In the worst-case scenario where an issue needs to be rectified beneath your floor, be confident that we will only raise the exact point of the fault and your floor can be repaired to look as it was.
