HEARING LOOPS FOR SERVICE COUNTERS
You’ve likely arrived at this page because you’ve been at a service counter that has a hearing loop installed and have seen this sign.

What is a Counter Hearing Loop?
For people with cochlear implants and hearing aids, background noise can be a problem and make it very difficult to communicate.
A counter loop is a particular type of hearing loop system that is installed at service counters to provide clear communication with hearing instrument wearers.
Service counter hearing loops amplify speech captured by a microphone and leave most of the background and ambient noise out, making them very effective in helping people with hearing loss converse freely.
How do I use a Hearing Loop?
If your personal hearing device is equipped with a T-coil, simply set your device to the ‘T’ setting.
Depending on the device, this can be done by pushing a button, toggling a switch, or using a remote control.
Once activated, the Telecoil program can be accessed by pushing a button on the hearing device.

If you’re not sure if your hearing device has a T-coil, ask your hearing health care provider if your hearing instruments have a Telecoil or T-coil and how to turn them on. Talk to your hearing aid provider to find out if your instruments can have both a T, no background noise pick-up and an M+T program (blended microphone & T-coil program) for the best experience with your device.
