How Wet Can My Hearing Aids Get?

People can become so used to wearing hearing aids that they can forget to remove them before showering or swimming. Although most hearing aids are water resistant and a few models are waterproof, none are meant to be submerged in water. A brief stint in the shower or an unexpected downpour should not damage your hearing aids if you immediately remove the wet batteries (don’t remove rechargeable batteries) and dry the hearing aids with a cloth. It’s best to let them air dry, but you can decrease drying time by using a fan or hairdryer on the no-heat setting. Wet hearing aids can also be placed inside a sealed bag of uncooked rice for 24 hours to absorb any leftover moisture.  

 Because your hearing instruments are  valuable investments, they deserve your utmost attention in keeping them in the best of shape. We can show you how taking a few easy steps of daily good care helps ensure your hearing instruments function properly and prolongs their lifespan. Our comprehensive services include hearing testing, proper hearing aid recommendation and fitting, and follow-up  support and counseling. We can help you achieve better hearing! Call us!

P.S. Most modern hearing aids have an IP (ingress protection) rating that represents their level of water resistance.
