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. But you'll find that repairs won't be so bad or disruptive, especially when you have the right specialists handling your issues. Most homeowners tend to fret over the idea that their floors will need to come apart during repairs. On the contrary, only a minority of incidents of repair occur beneath the ground.
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. Incorrect settings in the thermostat could also cause heating problems. You should try your best to switch on your underfloor heating periodically during the summer. Being idle for so long may cause certain issues to occur. 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. The cables are normally laid on an insulation board to improve energy efficiency. A thermostat regulates these systems. Electric underfloor heating normally has a long lifespan, absent of problems, when their installations are perfectly done. When they do develop issues, however, this may be down to various factors. Incorrect settings in an electric underfloor thermostat or a faulty component are commonly the reason behind the issues.
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. 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. A technician can simply work to repair it, but if it is too far gone, it will be replaced. 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.
Commonly called Hydronic underfloor heating, these systems comprise the use of pipes under your floors. The pipes transport warm water around, which is responsible for giving your home warmth. They are connected to a central boiler and controlled by a thermostat. 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.
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. Other complex issues may arise, but rest assured that our technicians can solve any issue concerning water underfloor heating.
