Electric underfloor heating comes with electric cables or sheets which are laid under or within your floor. Insulation boards are normally set beneath the heating cables to ensure that the system will be energy-efficient. A thermostat controls the heat output and temperature of electric underfloor heating systems. They can last for a long time without developing issues when they are correctly installed. In the instance that they exhibit issues, however, some underlying causes could be at play. Incorrect settings in an electric underfloor thermostat or a faulty component are commonly the reason behind the issues.

Water underfloor heating comes with laid down pipes rather than electric cables and sheets. It is also called Hydronic underfloor heating. These pipes are responsible for circulating warm water around your home evenly. A boiler, which is controlled by a thermostat, heats up the water. 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.
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.
