Underfloor heating is generally quite reliable and will serve you for a long time before it begins to struggle. 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. We know you may be worried that your whole floor will need to be torn apart to conduct repairs. However, most repair works are done without touching your floor.
If your underfloor heating has a fault beneath your floors, the root of the problem will be accurately located via our thermal imaging equipment. If a replacement or repair is to be made beneath your floor, only the affected point will be targeted. In our experience, we have found that issues with underfloor heating systems tend to consist of faulty wirings, problematic actuators, worn-out pumps, air-locked pipes, and most times, unevenly heated areas. Thermostat settings have also been a source of 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. You should do this to avoid faults developing in your underfloor heating. Depending on the type of underfloor heating you have installed, some specific faults may be present.
Electric underfloor heating comes with electric cables or sheets which are laid under or within your floor. The cables are normally laid on an insulation board to improve energy efficiency. A thermostat is responsible for adjusting and setting the temperature levels of the electric underfloor heating system. 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. We have noticed that thermostats are of primary concern with most electric underfloor heating.
Putting in the right settings (you can check the user manual of your system) may get your system working again, but in the instance that they are faulty, you should call in the experts. 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 technician can simply work to repair it, but if it is too far gone, it will be replaced. 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. This system disperses heat through the warm water, which is circulated through the pipes. 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. 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.
