While most hearing aids are water-resistant, none are waterproof. If you find yourself caught in a rainstorm or sweating heavily during a summer hike around Easter Island Trail, a dryer or humidifier is an essential accessory to prevent water damage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can find dehumidifiers in electronic boxes or drying jars. Drying jars are filled with desiccating beads that draw moisture from your devices. They are an excellent option on camping trips or other times when you may not have access to electricity. Dryers are usually small boxes that blow low-level heat to steadily dry out your hearing aids without causing damage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Clips and Fasteners<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Clips and fasteners are especially helpful for pediatric hearing aids but may also benefit those with active lifestyles. You can grab hearing aid clips and fasteners in a variety of colors to make them easier to spot and more fun for young children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cleaning Kit<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Hearing aids accumulate a fair amount of earwax, dirt and debris\u2014making cleaning kits an essential accessory for everyone. Cleaning kits typically include a wax removal brush and pick, a tube and vent cleaner, a battery door opener and a battery replacement magnet. You can use your kit every night to keep your devices clean and long-lasting<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Earwax Filters<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Earwax filters play a crucial role in keeping excess wax from reaching the electrical components of your hearing aids. These filters not only extend the lifespan of your devices but also ensure the delivery of clear, uninterrupted sound.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Decoration<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Decorating your hearing aids will help you feel confident in your devices. Try adding small device-safe stickers or beads. Avoid covering any ports, and never use glue or other permanent materials. If you\u2019re unsure which decorations are safe, contact your hearing aid specialist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dryers, dehumidifiers, clips, fasteners, cleaning kits, earwax filters and decorations can help you get the most out of your devices.
