But repairing your system when the need calls for it, through the right experts, will ensure that you continue to enjoy your warmth and comfort. One of the greatest concerns we have experienced is that the problem might be beneath your floor. But you should know that the majority of underfloor heating issues are above 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 there's a need to fix an underground issue, rest assured that the floor repairs required will be minimal. Through our many years of repairing underfloor heating, we have come to identify the main issues to include faulty actuators, bad wirings or insulators, pipes locked with air, and unevenly heated parts. 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. The kind of underfloor heating you have in place may come with unique problems.
Electric underfloor heating consists of laying electric heating sheets or electric cables within or beneath your floors. The heating wires will be placed over an insulation board to boost power-efficiency. 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 prevalent problem normally involves issues with the thermostat.
Effecting the right settings through manual instructions will be sufficient to solve the problem if it's a setting issue. But when the thermostat brakes, it requires the help of a professional. 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. Another issue could lie with the floor sensor probe, and poor installation may be responsible. 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.
These systems are also known as Hydronic underfloor heating, and they come with pipes installed under the floor. These pipes are responsible for circulating warm water around your home evenly. A thermostat controls the system, and the pipes are connected to a boiler. This system warms up your home according to the type of flooring you have in place. Their issues can also be fixed by our technicians without any fuss.
Issues that are commonly present in hydronic underfloor heating include faulty actuators; wrong thermostat configurations or faulty thermostats; loss of pressure on the system; pipes that are punctured, which can be repaired or fixed by our technicians; or airlocks in pipes. There are a host of other issues which could arise from your wet underfloor heating, but none are impossible for our experts to fix! On the rare occasion that part of your flooring needs to be lifted to perform a repair, rest assured that we'll only be working around the affected spot and your floor can be furnished to look the same again.
