What Maintenance Steps Should I Follow for Longevity of My Hearing Aids

Your hearing aid is a valuable investment, especially in the varied climate of Rawalpindi and Islamabad. To keep it performing perfectly for years, regular care is essential. These simple yet effective maintenance steps will protect your device and help it last longer.


1. Daily Cleaning Routine

  • Wipe the surface gently with a soft, dry cloth to remove earwax and oils.

  • Use a brush or wax loop to clean the microphone ports and ear tips.

  • Check vents and filters daily and replace them when clogged.


2. End-of-Day Storage

  • Open battery compartment to let moisture escape (for disposable battery models).

  • Use a dehumidifier box or drying kit overnight, especially during humid monsoons.

  • Avoid leaving aids in the bathroom or direct sunlight—heat damages batteries and internal parts.


3. Battery & Rechargeable Care

  • For disposable batteries, replace them every 3–7 days and discard correctly.

  • For rechargeable models, follow the manufacturer’s charge guidelines—avoid overcharging overnight.

  • Use only the original charger or approved replacement to prevent damage.


4. Protection from Dust & Moisture

  • Don’t wear hearing aids while showering, swimming, or in heavy rain.

  • After exposure to dust, wipe devices thoroughly and store them properly.

  • Use special coated tubing and protective covers to repel water in humid weather.


5. Routine Professional Checkups

Schedule visits every 3–6 months with a certified audiologist for:

  • Mic and speaker cleaning

  • Wax filter replacement

  • Program updates and fine-tuning

  • Real‑ear measurement to ensure accurate fitting


6. Handle with Care & Small Repairs

  • Be gentle when inserting and removing hearing aids.

  • Replace ear domes, wax guards, and tubing as recommended.

  • Avoid applying liquids directly—clean with soft cloths only.

  • Report any unusual sounds or issues promptly to avoid major problems.


7. Warranty & After‑Sales Support

Your device’s warranty (1–3 years) covers manufacturing defects, but you must follow all maintenance advice. Neglecting care can void warranties. Local support at Professional Hearing Solutions ensures:

  • Genuine parts

  • Warranty‑compliant service

  • Expert repairs and support
