  1. Moisture and Hearing Technology: What to do If Your Hearing Aids Get Wet?

  2. There comes a time in every person’s life, where they are lectured on the importance of keeping electronic devices dry. You may also have heard from many people- the long-standing, popular rice trick to draw moisture out of a wet electronic device. However, getting your hearing aid wet can be more nerve-wracking as it is one of the devices that don’t mix well with water. This article is all about what you need to do when you accidentally dunk your hearing aids.

  3. Tips To Get Your Waterlogged Hearing Aid Working Again – • Take Quick Action If your hearing aid drops into the water, take it out as quickly as you can. The less water it takes up in the first place, the better the chances of it working again. • Never Use the Wet Battery The first thing you should do after you take out the device from the water is to take the batteries out and throw them in the bin. This is because, if you continue to use the same battery, the moisture trapped inside will cause it to corrode over time and hamper the device’s functionality eventually.

  4. Insert New Batteries Once the aid has completely dried out, put fresh batteries in it and start it to check if it is still working. Hearing Aid Dryers and Desiccants Whether you lead an active lifestyle of a swimmer or live in a coastal or humid climate, if you are a hearing aid wearer, it is important for you to keep a hearing aid dryer by your side. Hearing aid dryers are an investment for anyone who uses any kind of hearing aid technology. Call Your Audiologist If the aid still does not work properly, contact your hearing aid provider that will send the device to the manufacturer for repair.

  5. The Bottom LineSo, if you are someone who tends to sweat heavily or stay often around water, ask your audiologist for a hearing aid instrument that carries a high IP rating for maximum water resistance. There are a few brands in the market that offer waterproof hearing aids. Phonak and Siemens hearing aids are one of those modern hearing technology solutions out there that offer water resistance and are tolerable in three feet of water for 30minutes.
