What is an appliance Healthcheck?

The health check is an industry standard check and test of your appliances to ensure that they are operating correctly and as efficiently as they ought to be.

The technicians will check the integrity of seals, hinges and so forth as well as testing the products functionally to ensure they are operating as intended and that they are safe to use. A full list of exactly what the technicians will check and test on a Healthcheck visit can be found here

Why do I need a Healthcheck?

Much like an MOT for your car the Healthcheck is designed to pick up on any immediate issues and to highlight them to you and as above, to check correct operation and safety.

It is sadly all too common that especially wear and tear items will slowly and gradually degrade over time and often users will not notice this happening as it is so progressive whereas, trained technicians will see such wear and tear.

Being aware and taking corrective action can improve performance and efficiency in many cases, enhance safety and even prevent unsafe events from occurring.

Will the technician repair the machine if there's a problem?

If they can do so they will however please be aware that additional labour charges and any spare parts are not included in the service unless you pre-arrange this with your local WTA member.

What else is done?
