You may not require repairs for many years if you have a quality system installed. And fixing the problems as they occur will give you longer periods of regular heat.

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. Common issues with underfloor heating which we have recognised over the years include faulty actuators, bad cables and wiring, air locked and worn-out pipes, and some areas lacking heat. Incorrect settings in the thermostat could also cause heating problems. 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. It is also important to understand issues that may occur in the type of underfloor heating you have installed.
With electric underfloor heating, electric wires and sheets are fitted underneath your floors. They consist of insulation boards which serve as underlayers to the electric heating cables. A thermostat regulates these 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. A common issue is an incorrect setting in the thermostat or a faulty thermostat.
Effecting the right settings through manual instructions will be sufficient to solve the problem if it's a setting issue. But when the thermostat brakes, it requires the help of a professional. 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. If the installation of your electric underfloor heating is done improperly, the floor sensor probe may be damaged. It could be repaired by a specialist or replaced. 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.
Commonly called Hydronic underfloor heating, these systems comprise the use of pipes under your floors. Warm water goes around these pipes to heat up your home. They are connected to a central boiler and controlled by a thermostat. 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.
Your water underfloor heating could be faced with actuator issues, air-locked or bleeding pipes, thermostats with wrong settings or faults, or a system that has lost its pressure.
