Your guide to drying and caring for hearing aids during hot weather
If we're lucky, the Great British Summer brings with it warm weather and lots of fun... for the wanderlusters among us, it might even bring a chance to jet off to somewhere even hotter. But also comes with it sweat, humidity and, if you've opted for a UK staycation, unexpected downpours! This isn't always ideal if you're wearing hearing aids. Moisture and humidity buildup can interfere with device performance and cause internal damage over time.
But fear not! The team at Connevans have rounded up our top drying solutions to help you keep your hearing aids clean, in tip-top condition, and working at their best all summer long.
Why is moisture bad for hearing aids?
Because hearing aids are worn on the body, they're exposed to sweat, humidity and even changes in the air temperature. Moisture can seep into the devices and affect their electronic components, potentially causing corrosion, poor sound quality, and sometimes even complete failure.
A regular drying routine can make all the difference in preventing these issues, and help work towards extending the life of your hearing aids.
