We are confident that you have enjoyed maximum comfort from your underfloor heating, whether it's an electric or water heating system. But underfloor heating can be problematic, especially after long term use with less maintenance. This will cause a reduction in heat levels in certain spots. Faulty underfloor heating tends to scare off plumbers and even installers. This shouldn't worry you, as we can help. Our repair services are thorough and comprehensive, so rest assured that your underfloor heating will return to full functionality regardless of the challenge. We will come to your property to make an honest evaluation, listen to the struggles you've been having and apprise you of what's wrong and the right steps to take.
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 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 most underfloor heating evaluations and repairs happen on the surface.
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. If a replacement or repair is to be made beneath your floor, only the affected point will be targeted. We have fixed underfloor heating for many years and have discovered that most of the issues lie in bad wiring, faulty actuators, worn out and air-locked pipes, as well as unevenly warmed up zones. Your thermostat configuration could also be responsible for some of your heating issues. During the summer, make sure to run your underfloor heating once in a while to get water circulated throughout the pipes. 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. Insulation boards are normally set beneath the heating cables to ensure that the system will be energy-efficient. A thermostat controls the heat output and temperature of electric underfloor heating systems. These underfloor systems lack problems for a long time after installation, particularly when they have been installed to a high standard. 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.
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. One or more wires may be cut or damaged when your system is being installed. This issue can be fixed by connecting the wires again with the proper equipment. The floor sensor probe could be faulty as a result of poor installation. 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.
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. The pipes are connected to a single boiler, and the temperature is 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.
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! 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.
