Hello,

I am currently having trouble with my underfloor heating in the upstairs that is not heating. On the advice of the installer, I opened the closed valves on the pipes, and the underfloor heating water ran through the pipes where normally a radiator would be connected in the bathroom, onto the floor. Now everything is, of course, wet and has even seeped through the joints.

My question is whether I can just let it dry or if I have to remove the floor and do something else. In any case, an area of 70x70cm was thoroughly wet.

When venting the new heating system, we also spilled some - stupidly, it even lifted the baseboard.

Because of the small amount, we haven’t torn up the floor now - so I wouldn’t do that in your place either. It’s not a water damage where the wall has been wet for weeks and who knows how many liters have seeped in.
