Generally speaking, underfloor heating has a long lifespan and will service your home for many years before it starts to display issues. 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. One of the greatest concerns we have experienced is that the problem might be beneath your floor. But you should understand that more than 90% of repairs go on above ground.
If it comes to the worst, thermal imaging equipment will be used in finding the faulty points under your flooring, which will enable our technicians to mark out the exact location of the problem and fix it accordingly. There will be minimal disruption to your flooring if we have to make repairs under your floors. Most underfloor heating comes up with similar issues, namely air locked pipes, actuator issues, faulty or wrong wirings, and several cold spots. Your thermostat configuration could also be responsible for some of your heating issues. A preventive measure for faults, which you should always put in practice, is to ensure that you run your underfloor heating from time to time during seasons where you don't need them, for instance, summer. Being idle for so long may cause certain issues to occur. Depending on the type of underfloor heating you have installed, some specific faults may be present.
With electric underfloor heating, electric wires and sheets are fitted underneath your floors. The cables always come installed on an insulation board to utilise energy efficiently. A thermostat controls the heat output and temperature of electric underfloor heating systems. They can last for a long time without developing issues when they are correctly installed. When they do develop issues, however, this may be down to various factors. We have noticed that thermostats are of primary concern with most electric underfloor heating.
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. The floor sensor probe could be faulty as a result of poor installation. A technician can simply work to repair it, but if it is too far gone, it will be replaced. Whatever the issue might be, (as there could be others), trust our proficient underfloor experts to get your electric underfloor heating functioning again.
These systems are also known as Hydronic underfloor heating, and they come with pipes installed under the floor. This system disperses heat through the warm water, which is circulated through the pipes. A central boiler is responsible for getting the water warm, whilst a thermostat regulates the heat. Your building's floor type will be a factor in the way your area is heated by hydronic underfloor heating. 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. There are a host of other issues which could arise from your wet underfloor heating, but none are impossible for our experts to fix! Your floors won't be excessively torn apart, even if we have to fix an issue below ground. Only the affected floor region will be lifted and then replaced.
