In order to avoid damage due to humidity or excessive perspiration, the use of a drying kit is
recommended. Some drying kits are electric, and in addition to thoroughly
drying out hearing instruments, they help sanitize.
Cleaning earmoulds
1. Remove the earmould and attached tubing from the hearing
instruments prior to cleaning.
2. Clean the earmould using a mild soap, and rinse with lukewarm water.
3. After cleaning, dry earmoulds thoroughly and remove any residual
water and debris from the tubing utilising an air bulb and wire loop.
Note: Earmould tubing may become stiff, brittle, or discoloured over time.
Contact your hearing care professional regarding tube changes.
