The Hearing Loss Help Co has put together some Tubing Replacement Kits for  BTE hearing aids. The tools were chosen to allow  you to replace the tubing many times. All you will have to purchase, once the initial investment is made, is more tubing.

If your hearing loss is mild you may request thinner tubing. But we suggest the thick tubing to minimize the chances of squealing. Thinner diameter tubing like #12  may be neccessary for a child.

For purchasing or replacing individual tools please see the listing of  sub-categories

We offer tubing that has a bend (preformed). This allows the hearing aid to better sit on your ear while not putting undue pressure on the earmold which can cause pain. 

Some preformed tubing are inserted into tube locks.  These tube locks replace the cement that is sometimes used by audiologists keep the tubing in the earmold. But cement makes it difficult to remove the old tubing. (Tube lock or cement is not always neccessary. Sometimes friction is enough). Some of the locks are made of plastic, others are metal. The metal ones require a special "insert" tool. Thge plastic ones are an improved version having ridges to keep the tube in the mold.

We offer "disappear" tubing. It is pink-tinted or brown to be inconspicous.

We offer moisture-free tubing. This repels moisture better than those that are not moisture "free".

Always keep extra tubing on hand. Bring some along when traveling. This is the best way to have clean, clear flexible tubing.

Hard, stiff and yellowed tubing can cause ear pain and poor hearing aid performance. Three months seems to be the average life expectancy of tubing. At that time it has started to stiffen and turn yellow. Buy fresh. Keep fresh.

Don't let your hearing aid money go anywhere but back to your hearing aids.

Thank you you for your business. Always a pleasure!
