Extensions FAQ
Learn more about when and how to use extension pieces with your SolaceShield hearing aid protector.
An extension piece is optional and based on personal preference and fit. Some people choose the extension piece because of:
Head shape and size — different head contours can change how the shield sits.
Volume sensitivity — some users need a bit more space to reduce pressure for comfort.
Hearing aid attachment length or position — devices like bone-anchored systems can vary in how far they protrude from the head (for example, Baha abutments vary in length from person to person).
If you want a little more height/clearance between your hearing device and your headgear (hat, helmet, etc.), the extension piece provides that extra space — but whether you need it is entirely up to you.
The extension piece adds extra height/clearance to the shield. This increased height helps ensure the hearing aid is not pressed too close against the head or hat, which can help:
• Maintain sound quality
• Reduce feedback or squealing
• Improve overall comfort
It's essentially an add-on that gives a bit more room between the device and whatever headwear you're using.
The extension piece is designed for easy attachment and removal:
• The extension simply pulls apart from the shield.
• You can then reattach it quickly when you need extra height.
• No tools are required — it's an intuitive, user-friendly connection.
There's no strict rule — it really comes down to the user's preferences and needs. You might consider an extension piece if:
• You want extra height or clearance
• Your headgear sits deep or tight
• You have a device with a longer attachment (for example, some bone-anchored hearing systems)
• You prefer a fit that doesn't sit as close
Ultimately, it's up to each customer to decide whether the extension gives the comfort and fit they're looking for.
