Trust Experts that are Factory Certified

Did you know that Westside Appliance Repair is Iowa’s only Whirlpool Factory Certified Care Center? Our technicians are trained and certified by Whirlpool Corporation to provide specialized care for Whirlpool, JennAir, KitchenAid and Maytag appliances.

What does Factory Certified mean for us?

There are a lot of factors that go into being a Whirlpool Corporation Factory Certified Care Center. A key component is training. Our technicians have to complete an online certification called the “Basic Technician Competency Model”.  This includes 44 online tests that measure their knowledge in several categories such as…

  • Basic electrical knowledge
  • Laundry product diagnostic troubleshooting
  • Dishwasher diagnostic troubleshooting 
  • Cooking diagnostic troubleshooting
  • Refrigeration diagnostic troubleshooting
  • Customer service and behavioral skills

What does Factory Certified mean for you?

Besides providing valuable service, our technicians are also able to answer any questions customers may have about their Whirlpool, JennAir, KitchenAid or Maytag appliances. Because of our training, we have a better understanding of the machine as a whole and the specifics of each brand. Appliances are more like computers these days and less like machines. Each brand has its own technology, and factory-trained technicians can solve issues faster.

Continuing Education

With not only Whirlpool Corporate brands, but with all the brands we service, our technicians also attend multiple factory trainings each year with training on new products and any training items that the manufacturers feel to be beneficial to us.

In addition to these trainings there are many optional training videos available for technicians to use to improve their skills and even assist them with any particular appliance repair issues they are actively resolving.
