While underfloor heating develops faults once in a while, it typically functions without issues for a long period at first. You may not require repairs for many years if you have a quality system installed. However, repairs will ensure that you don't lose more heat than you should, particularly when you employ the services of top technicians. You may be distressed about the state of your floors when it comes to repairs. On the contrary, only a minority of incidents of repair occur beneath the ground.
In the case that the issue is coming from under your floors, the precise location of the fault will be pinpointed by our thermal imaging equipment. If a replacement or repair is to be made beneath your floor, only the affected point will be targeted. 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. Sometimes, there may be issues with the configuration on your thermostat, or other timing or programming equipment you have in place. It is advised that you power up your heating system during warm seasons like summer, where you don't really have the need for your underfloor heating, as a precautionary measure. Leaving your heating systems off for a long period may cause valves and pipes to stick. Your underfloor heating may be electric or the hydronic variant. You should get to know which issues will likely come up with each.
Electric underfloor heating comes with electric cables or sheets which are laid under or within your floor. They consist of insulation boards which serve as underlayers to the electric heating cables. These systems are controlled by a thermostat. When fitted properly, problems and faults don't occur for years with electric underfloor heating. But when they aren't producing enough heat or are completely faulty, several factors may be responsible. Incorrect settings in an electric underfloor thermostat or a faulty component are commonly the reason behind the issues.
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 underfloor wires may be marred or broken, which could lead to an issue with your heating. This problem can be solved with the help of a proficient electrician. 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. Your home can be back to its comfortable state in no time if you experience any of these issues or some others not stated here.
Hydronic underfloor heating, as it is more technically known, involves the use of pipes laid beneath your floor. The pipes transport warm water around, which is responsible for giving your home warmth. A thermostat controls the system, and the pipes are connected to a boiler. Water underfloor heating warms up your home according to the floor type you have in place. Our repairers can also fix any kind of issues with these systems.
The pipes in the system could get punctured or locked by air, the actuator could develop a fault, the system may lose pressure, or the thermostat may be faulty or wrongly configured. Whatever the issue, even if they are more challenging than the above problems, they can be handled fully by our excellent technicians. If the issue which needs fixing happens to be below your floor, you don't have to worry, because we will only be working around the affected area and only minimal floor repairs will be required.
