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. Only the point of repair will be affected, and your floors can be replaced if your underfloor heating requires a solution underneath your floor. 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. Your thermostat configuration could also be responsible for some of your heating issues. 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. Issues may come up as a result of your system lying dormant. Depending on the type of underfloor heating you have installed, some specific faults may be present.
Electric underfloor heating is a complete system which comes with electric cables and mats which are installed under your floors. They consist of insulation boards which serve as underlayers to the electric heating cables. 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. There are, however, some reasons which may cause them to go faulty. 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. Faulty wirings, which can be simply fixed by a competent electrician, can be an issue. Poor installation may cause another issue with the floor sensor probe. Getting this issue solved is a simple case of fitting a new sensor probe. Our experts are highly trained to get your electric underfloor heating back to normal if any of these faults, and others not mentioned here, occur.
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. 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. Their faults can be fully repaired by our specialists.
Some of the usual issues with hydronic underfloor heating are air locked pipes, loss of pressure, problems with actuators, and thermostat settings or faults. Other complex issues may arise, but rest assured that our technicians can solve any issue concerning water underfloor heating. Your floors won't be excessively torn apart, even if we have to fix an issue below ground. Only the affected floor region will be lifted and then replaced.
