Thank You So Much for this video!!! I have always worn Phonak hearing aids and this is my first Resond pair. I could tell my wax guard desperately needed changing but I was so scared to do this myself. Being the weekend I turned to RUclips figuring you can find any information you need there, right?!? After many useless videos, I finally found yours (because my wax guards are INSIDE my custom molds) I was able to remove my ear mold, changed the wax guard and gave everything a good cleaning… and everything still worked when I put it back together!😃😃 SUPER helpful video!! Again, THANK YOU!!😃🤗😃
We're so glad you were able to use our video to figure it out! Changing filters is pretty easy once you know how to do it, but it definitely can be overwhelming the first few time! We hope you are hearing better now!
I just got a new set of Truhearing (Signia) TH 6 RIC LI T aids about 2 months ago with domes and thinking about switching over to custom molds as per your videos! I get a lot of random squeaks with my domes! I also listen to a lot of music (streaming into my aids) and would like to hear more low ends. I am concerned about wax buildup because I get some now but the tip of the dome seems to help protect the receiver from the wax. In the custom molds (from what I see) the receiver is out in the open with no protection! Won't that be a problem for more wax buildup on it?
I need help i got mine from a previous owner who was family and ive needed them and they have a custom mold and i want to know if i could somehow switch them to normal domes im so confused ive never had hearing aids like these their phonak rechargeable ones ive only ever had battery ones and i haven't been able to find them so in making due with these can anyone please help me
Hi Kate, your best course of action would be to have your hearing tested by and Audiologist and have the hearing aids reprogrammed for you. You could potentially damage your hearing if the hearing aids are programmed too loudly. If the hearing aids are RICs (Receiver in the Canal), they will have a very thin wire and a speaker at the end. These can easily be switched to domes. It is important that they are the appropriate size and configuration to fit your ear canal and hearing loss. If they are a BTE (Behind the Ear) hearing aid, they will have a hollow tube going into the custom earmold. A new earmold can be made to fit your ear. Either way, I really encourage you to visit an audiologist to have them fit properly. Reach out to us if we can be of help!

Helpful, thank you
What is the name of that tool? I’d like to buy one.
It's an older Siemens Click Mold Service Tool. Give us a call if you need help!
