Underfloor Heating
Under floor heating is an excellent way of keep your floors warm, and at the same time is affordable. West London Electrical provides reasonable heating solutions to keep your homes warm and cosy. Our under floor heating is resourceful and can be installed under all floor types. It is a great power-saver owing to the spread of steady low temperature across large spaces resulting in low utility bills.
You can section your flooring based on usage, which means you can install under floor heating in areas of the room used frequently and minimal heating on those areas that you do not use very often. Most modern homes prefer such heating options as it eliminates the need for wall mounted or hideous looking radiators and gives your home a more spacious and neater look.
To find faults in the system we use high voltage tools to detect hot spots on flooring. West London Electrical carries out under floor heating repairs efficiently and has used this technique for more than three decades. We execute these repairs with the greatest precision and care. There are chances that the weak spots identified in the heating wire may get damaged further especially in case of an older cable installation and can cause potential breakdowns in the future. We use this method only if all the other options are ruled out and perform it with great care.
Our usual modus operandi is to begin with ‘soft options’ to identify fault locations. First and foremost we study our instrument readings to determine the nature of fault and distance of fault in the heating wire. We then employ radio detection techniques to find the location of the fault, and if there is a need we use synchronized voltage radio detection to find the exact location of fault ranging in millimetres.
After the identifying the fault location West London Electrical neatly dig up minimal flooring area, usually just one tile, revamp the heating wire and clean up the area for easy restoration of the floor surface. We then run final tests for the under floor heating repairs and present a comprehensive report including the readings and conclusions. Photographs can also be made available if necessary. Thermal images of heating wire design can be made available by powering up the heating structure, if required.
West London Electrical specializes in under floor heating repairs and work directly for several reputable floor heating wire suppliers. It is therefore very vital that our technique of fault detection helps them find the source of the fault, which could either be due to problems with the installation or in rare cases a manufacturing fault.
