Extend the Life of Your Hearing Aids

You’ve made a valuable investment, so it’s important to learn how to properly care for your hearing aids.

Regular cleaning and care for your hearing aids will ensure they are working their best, especially now when hearing what is being said and what is going on is critical. You wouldn’t buy a brand-new car and then never clean it, would you? Keeping your hearing aids in top shape requires maintenance, too.

You’ve made a valuable investment, so it’s important to learn how to properly care for your hearing aids. We encourage you to visit our YouTube Channel for easy tutorial videos on how to clean your instruments to ensure your hearing aids are always in good working condition.

Weekly deep cleaning for your hearing aids

Even if you gently remove earwax that may be on the device every day, you should still set aside time for a deeper cleaning once each week. Neglecting to do so could lead to decreased performance in the long run.

Cleaning supplies for home care

It’s worth investing in some special cleaning supplies for deeper cleanings. If you are unable or uncomfortable going to an office right now, you can still keep your hearing aids clean and working their best at home with our Beltone Cleaning Set.

The Cleaning Set includes a variety of the cleaning supplies in a convenient travel bag, so you can perform general maintenance on your device from the comfort and safety of your home. Our Cleaning Set includes:

  • ●10 Cleaning Wipes

  • ●Cleaning Spray (with brush)

  • ●Drying Cup

  • ●Drying Capsule

  • ●Travel Bag

Be careful when caring for your hearing aids with these cleaning supplies, as one false move could damage the fragile parts. And don’t forget to wash your hands before cleaning so you don’t dirty your hearing aids with grease from your fingers.

Regular professional checks and cleanings

Even with proper at-home care, we recommend you bring your hearing aids in to be checked regularly by your Beltone hearing care professional. Because your Beltone hearing aid purchase includes our BelCare™ service, you are entitled to regular cleanings and ongoing care for the life of your hearing aids.

At Beltone, we’re still open and we’re here for you. Whether you want to order cleaning supplies or require a hearing aid adjustment, please get in touch whenever you need by calling your local Beltone office or 1-800-BELTONE. Beltone remains fully committed to helping patients like you however we can during this challenging and stressful time.
