Hearing Protection
Protecting Your Hearing from Noise Exposure
Prolonged exposure to noise levels above 85 decibels (dB) for eight hours or more can put your hearing at risk. While this may not seem excessively loud, everyday activities—such as operating construction equipment, mowing the lawn, or using power tools—can easily exceed 90 dB, making hearing protection essential.
At Precision Hearing Care, we strongly advocate for proactive hearing protection, recognizing the long-term impact of noise-induced hearing loss on overall well-being. Advances in hearing protection technology now offer affordable, effective, and customized solutions to help safeguard your hearing without compromising function or comfort.
We provide specialized hearing protection tailored for musicians, construction workers, first responders, and other professionals, ensuring they can perform their duties safely while preserving their hearing. Don’t wait until hearing loss becomes an issue—take action today to protect your hearing for the future. Contact us to explore the best hearing protection solutions for your needs!
