Where Should You Have Your Hearing Aid Repaired?

This is a question most hearing aid   users will have to ask themselves sooner or later.

Hearing aids are hybrids of mechanical and electronic devices.  They are subject to moisture, dust, dirt, earwax, debris, and physical abuse and  handling, and at some point in time, will require maintenance and possibly, major or minor repair. Where you go for hearing aid service is important.

As a hearing aid user, it is important you understand that the basic purpose of hearing aid manufacturers and retail outlets is to continually sell you new product.  Why?  That’s how they make the greatest profit, so these companies try to deter clients from repairing their hearing aids and instead pressure them to buy a new one. This attitude is reflected by many outlets who claim they cannot repair even their own brand of hearing aid after a specified period of time, such as 3 or 5 years.

All hearing aids, standardized or custom-made, can be repaired.  Whether you need to fix the microphone, receiver, a broken wire, or a bad transistor, it can be repaired.
