How to Repair Underfloor Heating




Underfloor heating is an expensive investment to warm your house and at first glance, you’d think it would be hard to repair since it is under titles and a leveller. However, it is actually fairly simple to replace or repair underfloor heating. The most common problems with underfloor heating and how to fix them are as follows:
The floor sensor may be faulty if the thermostat displays a different reading to what is normal. Most professionals include a second floor sensor as a backup to ensure it isn’t a major job to swap the sensors used by the thermostat. However, if there is no alternative sensor you will have to install a replacement floor sensor by digging into the grout lines and removing a title so you can position it with the underfloor heating mat.
You can identify whether your thermostat is faulty by resetting it to factory settings. If you believe your thermostat is faulty you will need to change it.
Most underfloor heating mat cables are damaged because of carelessness in regards to cutting into the electric cable. However, if you cut the electrical cable you can easily identify the location of the damage so you can quickly fix it with a repair kit.
If you are unsure where in the underfloor heat mat that the failure has occurred you will need to call Plumbers SW11 who are experienced with this problem. We will then use our expertise and equipment which includes a thermal imaging camera to identify the location of the damage. Most underfloor heating mats come with warranty so you shouldn’t be out of pocket since the manufacturer should cover the costs.
If you do need help with your underfloor heating or any other services which include plumbing, drainage or installations, be sure to book Plumbers SW11 to help you out. Plumbers SW11 have a team of experienced professionals who are always willing to go the extra mile for the customer.
