Underfloor heating can function for a long time before issues begin to arise. Quality underfloor heating will last for a long time before problems begin to occur. 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. However, most repair works are done without touching your floor.
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. Most underfloor heating comes up with similar issues, namely air locked pipes, actuator issues, faulty or wrong wirings, and several cold spots. Another problem that could affect your underfloor heating includes wrongly configured thermostats. During the summer, make sure to run your underfloor heating once in a while to get water circulated throughout the pipes. If your underfloor heating remains for a long period without being warmed up, some problems may arise. 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. The cables always come installed on an insulation board to utilise energy efficiently. A thermostat regulates electric underfloor systems. These underfloor systems lack problems for a long time after installation, particularly when they have been installed to a high standard. Various elements could be responsible if these systems somehow become problematic. Incorrect settings in an electric underfloor thermostat or a faulty component are commonly the reason behind the issues.
Your heating system could start running again if you input the appropriate settings. If the thermostat has gone faulty, however, you need the aid of a technician. 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. It could be repaired by a specialist or replaced. Whatever the issue might be, (as there could be others), trust our proficient underfloor experts to get your electric underfloor heating functioning again.
With water underfloor heating, pipes, rather than cables or wires and insulators, are fitted under the floors. This system disperses heat through the warm water, which is circulated through the pipes. 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. If a problem arises within these systems, rest assured we can fit it effectively.
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.

Repairing a faulty component beneath your floor doesn't necessarily entail tearing it up to bring out the entire system. We will simply work to get it fixed at the precise location of the problem.
