We do not care for surprises, so we are upfront about everything. We do not just fix problems. We want to help prevent them through proactive care and guidance from professionals.
Common repair and maintenance services include:
- General cleaning that includes microphones, tubing, and receivers
- Adjustments and reprogramming of devices for improved sound performance

Scheduling a Repair
If your hearing aids are not working like they should or like they used to, consider scheduling a professional servicing. Many common issues can be repaired quickly, but it is the early attention that is important. Addressing minor issues can help prevent more significant, costly problems. Our team can usually restore your devices on the spot or at least provide a temporary solution until more detailed repairs are completed.
Signs your devices may need servicing:
- Weak, distorted, or intermittent sound
- A new feedback or whistling that is not usually present
- A shorter-than-normal battery life
- Any physical damage, like cracks or loose parts
- The device feels uncomfortable or fits differently than when new.
Our Repair Process
VirtuHear’s repair process was created to be convenient, stress-free, and transparent. When you bring in or send your hearing aids to us for service, we follow a simple three-step process. This means you get the fastest possible results.
- Assessment and Diagnosis
We start by carefully inspecting your devices to find the source of the problem. This includes checking for blockages, testing the microphone and receiver performance, and verifying the programming. You’ll receive a clear explanation of the problem and a recommended repair plan.
- Repair or Replacement
Many repairs can be completed in the office during your visit. For more in-depth issues or internal damage, we’ll handle shipping to the manufacturer and manage all communication on your behalf. Our goal is to minimize downtime and return your devices to like-new condition.
- Verification and Return
Before returning your devices, we thoroughly test them to ensure sound quality and comfort. We’ll review proper maintenance and storage steps with you to help prevent future issues.
