Electric underfloor heating is a complete system which comes with electric cables and mats which are installed under your floors. The heating wires will be placed over an insulation board to boost power-efficiency. A thermostat is responsible for adjusting and setting the temperature levels of the electric underfloor heating system. When installed correctly, electric underfloor heating can last for a long time without developing issues. In the instance that they exhibit issues, however, some underlying causes could be at play. A prevalent problem normally involves issues with the thermostat.
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. Another issue could lie with the floor sensor probe, and poor installation may be responsible. A new sensor probe can be installed to get things back in order. 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.
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. A boiler, which is controlled by a thermostat, heats up the water. Your building's floor type will be a factor in the way your area is heated by hydronic underfloor heating. Problems that occur with this system can also be solved proficiently by our professionals.
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.
