How can Hearing Direct help?

It is very important to remove the earwax that builds up with time and eventually blocks important parts of the device such as the earmold, microphone or sound tube. 

• We have Phonak cleaning kits for both Behind the ear and In Ear hearing aids. They contain all the tools you need to keep your hearing aid in good condition.
• The Phonak Wind and Weather Protectors for Behind The Ear Hearing Aids are useful microphone filters that help protect the hearing aid from skin debris, dust particles and humidity.
• Phonak C Stop Wax Guards or the Phonak SmartGuard Wax Protector help to protect In Ear hearing aids from wax.
• In order to keep the device functioning to its maximum capacity, it is also necessary to replace some of the parts from time to time such as the domes and tubes. On our website, you can purchase Phonak SlimTubes, which are suitable for behind the ear hearing aids from the Ambra, Solana and Cassia range or Phonak Micro Tubes, which could be used with devices from the Savia, Milo Mitro, SaviaArt, Certena, Eleva, Versata, Exelia, ExeliaArt or Extra ranges.
