GFI outlets can produce dirty electricity, yes.  You'd be better using GFI breakers, perhaps, so that the electricity is cutoff at the panel.  I'm not sure if GFI outlets/breakers will wear out if tripped on a regular basis like that.  There are better ways to cutoff the electricity at the panel though.

The shielding in the extension cords will be a little better due to foil.  The double-shielded black cords that we are out of were better yet.  But really the differences in all of these things is negligible.  You can expect around 95% reduction with the Safe Wrap.  You can expect about the same with the shielded extension cord.  It depends greatly on how the measurement is performed to control other variable besides just the shielded sections of the cords themselves.


Safe Wrap is definitely easy to use as it will go around any already-existing cord.  As Brian said, it is available in all sizes by ordering it in bulk: https://www.electrahealth.com/Safe-Wrap--BULK-By-the-Foot-Electric-Field-EMF-Guard-for-Cords-and-Cables-by-ElectraHealth-Research-Institute_p_225.html

Or you can get the standard Safe Wrap for a cord here: https://www.electrahealth.com/safe-wrap--electric-field-emf-guard-for-cords-and-cables-by-electrahealth-research-institute.html

Lastly when you already have 1 standard Safe Wrap installed, and you have a 2nd cord nearby it that needs to be shielded, you can get the add-on version: https://www.electrahealth.com/Safe-Wrap--ADDON-Electric-Field-EMF-Guard-for-Cords-and-Cables-by-ElectraHealth-Research-Institute_p_226.html

A good spectrum analyzer might be required for this job.  I am currently not equipped with this.  I have various RF meters, but I don't think they would give us the information we need.  They would not show us the specific frequency.  You would need a spectrum analyzer and to use it in a few different places (a couple places where the sound isn't present, and then one where it is very apparent to you).

I have not heard of a "de-buzz coil" - do you have a link or name by chance?  This is interesting.

That's very good.  You can also shield the power cables if you need to with our new, revolutionary Safe Wrap cord wrap!  We always recommend measuring before and after for electric fields.  In most cases it will lower the fields significantly!  Well, it always lowers the fields from the cords, but in some cases is may not lower overall body exposure due to a cancelling effect with other circuits.  But usually it does.  This is why we always recommend measuring for electric field when doing shielding and grounding of cords.  The Trifield TF2 is a good entry meter for that.

So to summarize:

1) In most cases properly shielding and grounding cords (replacing shielded cords with our cords and using our adapters for proper grounding without creating ground loops) is extremely beneficial


2) Using ElectraHealth's Safe Wrap makes a tremendous difference (95% or greater usually) in electric field readings from a cord.


3) It is always recommended to measure - everything we do we want to see that we have improved the situation and verify that.  Measure before, measure after, put it back to original state and measure it a 3rd time.  The Trifield TF2 on Electric setting is a good entry-level meter for this.

Thank you so much for shopping with us!  We really appreciate it.  If you have anymore questions - this is a great way to get detailed answers.  And for anyone else reading, if you like our information we would really appreciate your business so that we can continue helping people by providing honest, BS-free information.

Oh I misread and thought you had a DSL modem.  Seth is correct - if your modem is a cellular or "over the air" modem then yes, indeed, it will always be putting out radiation!  It has to upload packets in the form of RF radiation.  So it will be constantly radiating toward the towers.  You can sometimes move the modem to an attic or something and attach an external directional antenna that will help direct the radiation moreso in one direction.  It is not a perfect solution, but it can help a lot and also improve your signal/reception.  But the best solution would be to get cable or fiber Internet service and get rid of the over-the-air service.

You have a single modem/router unit?  Or do you have a modem/router unit, and then a second router?  It sounds like just a single unit.

I have seen units that shutting off the WiFi does not actually eliminate the radio - and the radio still puts out radiation.  You have gone through all of the settings - advanced settings pages too - to see if there are settings to completely turn off the WiFi?  You can't just turn off the network name broadcast (SSID).  There should be a setting to turn the radio off completely.  Not all routers have this setting though.

We can do a remote session with you to go through your router and check all of the settings and see if there is a way to completely eliminate that radiation for good.

Unfortunately there are not.  You can install Stetzerizer Filters near the dimmer.  Usually there is an outlet that is on the same circuit as the dimmer switch (look at nearby outlets to see if they jump up to like 700+ when dimmer is turned on).  This would be the best thing you could do - installing filters closest to the source.  We also have some new filters coming up that may help additionally as well with some of the super high frequency stuff.

I would definitely talk to Seth.  You are being given completely wrong information.  The bulk of the cost of installing cabling is labor.  The cable itself is very little cost.  The difference in cost between shielded vs unshielded in an installation is minimal.  I don't have an explanation for why this company is telling you this.  In an average job, I would estimate the difference in cost per foot for shielded vs unshielded to be like 50 cents.  Whereas the labor is usually more around 2 to 4 dollars per food.  However when people buy the cable from us they are usually avoid exorbitant markup from the installer for the material too.  So that helps.  Seth will take care of you.

Will you be needing voice (VOIP) with your cable Internet service, or will you not be wanting/needing a "land line" phone that plugs into your cable modem?
