Wireless Zone® adds Wet Phone Recovery Capability to all Stores
Partnership with REDUX offers highly successful drying option
ROCKY HILL, Conn., Sept. 11, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Wireless Zone®, a Verizon Authorized Retailer providing smartphones and other wireless products, has announced a partnership with REDUX, a manufacturer of electronic drying devices, to add wet electronic restoration capability in all Wireless Zone franchise locations. The service will be available in all Wireless Zone® locations starting on September 15th, 2018.
Accidentally dropping a phone or other electronic device in water can damage sensitive electronics and make the item unusable. The REDUX machine creates a vacuum chamber which, combined with humidity sensors, effectively removes 100% of moisture.
Wireless Zone® Executive Vice President, Michael Broe, noted, "We continue to expand our offerings beyond phones, to make Wireless Zone® a community resource for advice and guidance on home and personal wireless devices, and with services to protect these devices against damage." He continued, "REDUX solves a common problem among electronic users and can restore a wet unit to a fully functional device quickly and inexpensively."
REDUX machines have an 84% success rate in drying wet electronics that have not been plugged in since submersion. For a small fee or a membership, a wet phone can usually be restored in less than an hour, allowing the user to retain phone services, photos, videos and contacts without damage. REDUX machines can also restore a host of other electronics damaged by accidental submersion, including electronic key fobs, hearing aids, Bluetooth devices, gaming controllers, tablets and small laptops.
REDUX Director of Business Development, James Shrake, noted that the partnership with Wireless Zone® was mutually beneficial. "With nearly 400 stores across the US, Wireless Zone® provides an opportunity to thousands of customers to choose REDUX as their first choice to save, rather than replace, a wet device."
