Underfloor heating can function for a long time before issues begin to arise. You may not require repairs for many years if you have a quality system installed. But you'll find that repairs won't be so bad or disruptive, especially when you have the right specialists handling your issues. You may be distressed about the state of your floors when it comes to repairs. But most underfloor heating evaluations and repairs happen on the surface.
In extreme cases, our technicians will use sophisticated thermal imaging devices to pinpoint the exact spot that is faulty. 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. During the summer, make sure to run your underfloor heating once in a while to get water circulated throughout the pipes. Issues may come up as a result of your system lying dormant. Water and electric underfloor heating often come with separate issues, and you should be conversant with them.
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. These underfloor systems lack problems for a long time after installation, particularly when they have been installed to a high standard. There are, however, some reasons which may cause them to go faulty. The thermostat is usually a commonplace to look. It may be faulty or have the wrong configuration.
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 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. Installation that was not up to standard may lead to the floor sensor probe becoming faulty. A new sensor probe can be installed to get things back in order. 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.
With water underfloor heating, pipes, rather than cables or wires and insulators, are fitted under the floors. Warm water goes around these pipes to heat up your home. The pipes are connected to a single boiler, and the temperature is controlled by a thermostat. The type of floor that you have in your building determines how this system warms up your rooms. Our repairers can also fix any kind of issues with these systems.
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. Whatever the issue, even if they are more challenging than the above problems, they can be handled fully by our excellent technicians. In the worst-case scenario where an issue needs to be rectified beneath your floor, be confident that we will only raise the exact point of the fault and your floor can be repaired to look as it was.
