Hearing Aid Repairs

Hearing Aid Repairs Made Simple.

Hearing aids are powerful tools that can help those with hearing loss to stay connected to the world. Still, just like other forms of technology, they can occasionally run into problems. Before assuming that your device is unable to be repaired and needs to be replaced, try a few troubleshooting steps:

Make sure the battery is charged and properly inserted into the device.

Gently clean your device to remove any built-up earwax or debris.

Double-check that the volume and program settings have not been accidentally adjusted too low or high. This can happen in an app or on the actual device.

For behind-the-ear models, inspect the tubing or earmold for blockages or cracks that need to be repaired.

For in-the-ear models, see if the wax guard or filter needs replacing.

If these steps do not fix the problem, it is best to bring your device to a professional for inspection and repairs or recommendations on what to do.

Understanding Repair Costs

The price of hearing aid repairs will depend on the actual problem, whether you are still under warranty, and whether replacement parts will be needed to resolve the issue.

If your hearing aid was purchased from Denver Audiology and is still under warranty, the repairs could be covered or require a nominal fee. For devices not under warranty or purchased from a different source, additional costs may apply. Custom-molded devices with cracked outer shells may require extra work, but they can often still be successfully repaired.

Knowing When It is Time for a Replacement

While many issues with hearing aids can be corrected, there are certain instances when a replacement may be a more effective investment than another repair. Consider these scenarios:

Your hearing aids are aging. Most devices have a functional lifespan of 3 to 5 years. If your hearing aids are nearing the end of that window, frequent repairs may be a sign it's time to upgrade.

You notice visible damage. Cracks, crush marks, or signs of water exposure may indicate internal damage that can't be repaired.

They’ve been repaired repeatedly. Just like a car with a history of breakdowns, a hearing aid that has needed multiple fixes may be more costly to maintain over time than replacing it.

Granted, the manufacturer’s warranty can bring some peace of mind during the coverage period, but it does not promise longevity beyond that point. If your repairs are starting to add up, our team can help you explore your options.
