Underfloor heating is generally quite reliable and will serve you for a long time before it begins to struggle. 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. One of the greatest concerns we have experienced is that the problem might be beneath your floor. However, most repair works are done without touching your floor.
In extreme cases, our technicians will use sophisticated thermal imaging devices to pinpoint the exact spot that is faulty. Only the point of repair will be affected, and your floors can be replaced if your underfloor heating requires a solution underneath your floor. 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. 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. It is also important to understand issues that may occur in the type of underfloor heating you have installed.
Electric underfloor heating is a complete system which comes with electric cables and mats which are installed under your floors. Insulation boards are normally set beneath the heating cables to ensure that the system will be energy-efficient. 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. A common issue is an incorrect setting in the thermostat or a faulty thermostat.
Your heating system could start running again if you input the appropriate settings. If the thermostat has gone faulty, however, you need the aid of a technician. 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. 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. These pipes are responsible for circulating warm water around your home evenly. A central boiler is responsible for getting the water warm, whilst a thermostat regulates the heat. This system warms up your home according to the type of flooring you have in place. 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.

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.
