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. You should do this to avoid faults developing in your underfloor heating. It is also important to understand issues that may occur in the type of underfloor heating you have installed.
Electric underfloor heating consists of laying electric heating sheets or electric cables within or beneath your floors. The cables always come installed on an insulation board to utilise energy efficiently. These systems are controlled by a thermostat. When fitted properly, problems and faults don't occur for years with electric underfloor heating. In the instance that they exhibit issues, however, some underlying causes could be at play. A common issue is an incorrect setting in the thermostat or a faulty thermostat.
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. 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. Poor installation may cause another issue with the floor sensor probe. It could be repaired by a specialist or 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.
Water underfloor heating comes with laid down pipes rather than electric cables and sheets. It is also called Hydronic underfloor heating. This system disperses heat through the warm water, which is circulated through the pipes. A thermostat controls the system, and the pipes are connected to a boiler. Your flooring will affect how your space is heated by this system. Their issues can also be fixed by our technicians without any fuss.
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 issues may be responsible for your heating system, not producing adequate heat or not working at all. Nevertheless, our experts are always up to the task. 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.
