Real Ear Measurements:

Real Ear measurements are considered “best practice.” When these measurements are run, they verify a hearing aid is programmed correctly for a patient, as each patient’s hearing loss and anatomy is unique.

How Moisture can affect Hearing Aids

How does Redux remove moisture from hearing aids?

  1. First, Redux pulls a vacuum on the device to reduce the evaporation point of water.
  2. Liquid turns to gas and is pulled out of the device.
  3. A valve is opened to introduce fresh dry air into the chamber that pushes the vapors outside the system across a humidity sensor.
  4. The process repeats until the humidity sensor confirms all moisture is removed.
  5. The process stops and the amount of moisture removed is displayed on the screen.
