[Old Account]

Hello Guys,

could someone tell me whats the best way of repairing a leaking pipe from the underfloor heating?

Someone has screwed the pipework with a screw therefore its loosing its pressure and the floor gets totally wet.

thanks for your help

Have you got access to the pipe to cut it out and repair? Or tried adding a leak sealer?

Haven't tried with leak sealer don't think it will work. I have space to cut it a section out

Bigger screw?
Piece of rubber with a jubilee clip on top?

(Just kidding of course)

haha what a Sunday fix yes is quite a big screw.. I think the whole pipe ends chabging

what brand of underfloor heating is it? Get some pipe and a couple of couplings?

if its 15mm poly cut on the screw hole and repair with a pushfit socket.

should do as a temp fix, I would then advise getting in touch with the uf manufacturer and asking what they use for a permanent fix.

Who is the manufacturer ? check manifolds if you can't see the pipes.

Wisrbo / Uponor do a pipe repair coupling for the Pex pipes.

No mate, I said that before you put the photos up.

Why not identify which zone is leaking and isolate so they can have use of the rest of the uf heating whilst you order a repair kit from the manufacturer?

at least it is not concrete fusion weld is the only option for a permanent repair
