We clean, service and repair hearing aids at Electronic City Phase 1 and Phase 2, Bengaluru. Most major brands, including Phonak and Signia, even if bought elsewhere. Many problems are fixed in the visit. Factory repairs are quoted before we send them.
Most "dead" aids are a flat battery, a blocked wax guard or a worn dome. Five minutes may save the trip.
The change may be in your ears. Wax in the ear canal needs an ENT doctor. A fresh hearing test shows whether the aid needs reprogramming.
Still quiet, crackly or whistling? Bring the aid, its charger or spare batteries, and your old domes or tubes if you have them. If the aid is from another clinic, bring any paperwork you have so we can see the model and settings.
We service Phonak, Signia, Widex, Oticon, Starkey, ReSound and most other major brands. You need not have bought it from us.
For a factory repair we tell you what is likely wrong and the likely cost, and send it only once you agree.
How long a factory repair takes depends on the brand and the part, so we give you an estimate when we send it.
If your aid is still under warranty and was bought elsewhere, the clinic that sold it is usually the quickest route for the claim. We can still check it and tell you what is wrong.
A clean or new dome costs little. A factory repair can cost a large share of a new aid.

Phonak is one of the few brands that publishes its India repair prices, so its list gives a fair idea of out-of-warranty costs across the major brands. Sometimes a new aid is the better buy, and sometimes the repair is clearly worth it.
Hearing aids are currently exempt from GST, but spare parts and accessories are taxed. We confirm on your invoice.
Batteries are colour-coded, so match the new packet to the old sticker at a glance.
| Size | Sticker colour | Usually fits | Typical life |
|---|---|---|---|
| 10 | Yellow | Very small in-canal aids | 3 to 5 days |
| 312 | Brown | Receiver-in-canal and small in-ear aids | 3 to 7 days |
| 13 | Orange | Behind-the-ear aids | 6 to 10 days |
| 675 | Blue | Power behind-the-ear aids | 9 to 20 days |
Pull the sticker off and wait about a minute before closing the battery door. The battery uses air to start working, and it lasts longer if you let it. Keep spare batteries at room temperature, away from coins and keys.
Tired of changing batteries, or finding the small ones hard to handle? Ask about rechargeable models when you next look at hearing aids.
Wax and moisture cause most faults. A minute a day keeps the aid clear.
If a parent wears the aid, show the routine to whoever helps them at home. Small parts like wax guards are fiddly for stiff fingers, and we are happy to show you both how to change them at your visit.
Housebound or elderly? We also offer home visits in and around Electronic City for checks and adjustments.
Same team, same equipment, same hours at both. Pick whichever is closer.

Poorvam Hearing repairs and services hearing aids at both our Electronic City centres, Phase 1 on Hulimangla Road and Phase 2 in Ananth Nagar. We see most major brands, including Phonak, Signia, Widex, Oticon, Starkey, ReSound, whether or not you bought the aid from us. Call or WhatsApp +91 88848 64343 before you come.
Yes. Both Poorvam Hearing centres, Phase 1 on Hulimangla Road and Phase 2 in Ananth Nagar, work as a hearing aid service centre: cleaning, wax guards, tubing and domes, receivers, reprogramming and diagnosis. Faults that need factory parts are sent to the manufacturer through us.
Yes. We check, clean and service aids bought from other clinics and other cities. If the aid needs a factory repair, we tell you what is wrong and what the manufacturer is likely to charge before anything is sent. If it is still under warranty, the clinic that sold it is often the quickest route for the warranty claim.
Whistling is sound leaking out of the ear and back into the microphone. The usual causes are a dome or earmould that no longer fits snugly, wax in your ear canal, a cracked tube, or volume set too high. A new dome or tube often fixes it. If the whistling started after weight loss or a long gap, the fit or the programme may need adjusting.
A clean and service is the cheapest fix. On Phonak’s official India list (July 2024), a general service is ₹1,180 and a factory repair on a receiver-in-canal aid ranges from ₹6,200 to ₹25,000 depending on the model tier. Other brands charge on similar lines. We tell you the likely cost before any repair goes ahead.
Look at the colour of the sticker on the battery packet or the old battery: yellow is size 10, brown is 312, orange is 13 and blue is 675. The size is also usually printed inside the battery door or in the user booklet. If you are not sure, send us a photo of the aid on WhatsApp.
Take it out of the ear straight away, open the battery door and remove the battery. Wipe it dry and leave it in a drying box or a dry place overnight. Do not use a hair dryer, oven or microwave. If it still sounds weak or crackly the next day, bring it in for a check.
No. Wax in the ear canal should be removed by an ENT doctor. We clean the wax out of your hearing aid itself, and we will tell you if wax in your ear is the reason the aid sounds weak.
Bring it to Phase 1 or Phase 2. We check it, tell you what is wrong, and quote before any paid repair.
