March 25, 2020 – A-Tech Appliance Parts & Service is listed as an “Essential Service” by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. Household appliances are a key component in maintaining a healthy, clean household. Maintenance and repair of these appliances is considered an essential service and permitted to operate during the Covid-19 “Shelter in place’ orders.
The technicians at A-Tech are ready, willing, and able to serve your appliance repair needs.
Home appliances are being used during this crisis as never before. Sanitation is of the utmost importance, and retail closures extremely limit broken appliance work-around options.
Licensed, factory trained, background-checked technicians are taking great care to service your repair needs while maintaining strict health and safety standards to protect themselves and your family from infection.
The CDC, OSHA, and Whirlpool Corporation have published safe repair guidelines. To protect the technicians that are entering your home, we CANNOT currently accept service requests where active COVID-19 virus may be present. This includes:
- Households with an active infection or symptoms of infection, such as fever, dry cough, or other respiratory issues.
- Households with members that have been in contact with someone diagnosed with COVID-19 or someone quarantined for suspected COVID-19 over the past 14 days.
- Households with a/or member(s) that have traveled by commercial air, national/regional rail, or long-distance bus service recently.
If your household has any of these conditions, we cannot schedule a repair. Please wait 14 days from the disqualifying event for re-evaluation. We apologize for any inconvenience this causes, and thank you for your understanding.
