Keeping your hearing aids clean is one of the easiest ways to protect sound quality, comfort, and device lifespan. A simple hearing aid cleaning kit helps prevent common issues like weak sound, distortion, or intermittent performance caused by earwax and debris.
In this guide, we'll walk you through what's included in our Yeasound cleaning kit and how to use each item correctly as part of your daily and weekly routine.
Yeasound hearing aids come with a cleaning kit that includes the following essentials:
Each item plays a specific role in keeping your hearing aids working their best.
Wax Guards: Protecting Sound Quality
Wax guards are small filters placed near the sound outlet of your hearing aid. Their job is to block earwax and moisture from entering the device.
How often should you change wax guards?
- Every 1–2 weeks, or
-
Immediately if sound quality declines, such as:
- Sound becoming weaker or muffled
- No sound at all
Why it matters
A clogged wax guard is one of the most common reasons hearing aids stop working properly. Regular replacement ensures clear sound and prevents internal damage.
Cleaning Brush: Daily Microphone Care
The cleaning brush is designed to remove dust, earwax, and debris from the surface of your hearing aids—especially around the microphone ports.
How to use it
- Gently brush the microphone openings
- Always brush away from the openings, not into them
How often?
- Every day
Why it matters
Microphone ports are sensitive. Even small amounts of debris can affect sound clarity and speech understanding. Daily brushing helps maintain consistent performance.
Ear Domes: Comfort and Hygiene
Ear domes sit inside your ear canal and are in direct contact with your skin, making regular cleaning essential for both hygiene and comfort.
Cleaning routine
- Wipe ear domes with an alcohol wipe
- Let them dry completely before reattaching
How often?
- Every 2 days
When to replace ear domes
-
Every 1–2 months, or sooner if:
- The dome looks worn, torn, or discolored
- It feels loose or uncomfortable
- You notice changes in sound or fit
