"EMF" is not one measurement. A home can contain low-frequency magnetic fields, AC electric fields, radiofrequency signals, and wiring-related patterns with different sources and different ways to reduce them. ClearHome Labs measures these field types separately, maps readings around beds, desks, nurseries, and other occupied areas, and identifies likely sources. You receive a practical report that distinguishes a simple distance or device change from a condition that needs a qualified electrician or specialist. ClearHome does not sell shielding products and does not present a home EMF survey as a medical diagnosis.
Magnetic fields can come from power lines, transformers, electrical panels, appliances, wiring configurations, and current on grounding or plumbing paths. Strength can change quickly with distance and electrical load, which makes measurement at the actual bed, crib, chair, or desk more useful than a reading taken only at the source.
Energized wiring and connected equipment can produce electric fields even when an appliance is switched off. ClearHome can measure fields near occupied areas and, if included in the confirmed method, use body-voltage measurements as an additional indicator. Grounding, wiring, bed position, and nearby cords can affect the pattern.
WiFi routers, mesh nodes, phones, tablets, smart devices, baby monitors, security systems, cellular infrastructure, and neighboring sources can contribute to radiofrequency readings. ClearHome records the measurement conditions and maps the locations that matter to the household rather than assuming every wireless device creates the same exposure. Low-frequency electric and magnetic fields are measured with a Gigahertz Solutions ME3951A, and radiofrequency with a Safe and Sound Pro II broadband meter.
Certain measurement patterns may suggest wiring errors, grounding issues, or higher-frequency voltage on electrical wiring. A survey can identify where further electrical evaluation is warranted. It does not replace diagnosis or corrective work by a licensed electrician.
Field strength can vary across a few feet, between floors, and as equipment cycles. That is why the survey focuses on sustained-use locations and documents the state of relevant devices and systems.
A strong reading beside a panel may be expected and irrelevant if no one spends time there. A lower but sustained reading at a crib or bed may deserve more attention in the homeowner's planning. The report shows both the measured value and the context.
The U.S. EPA states that there are no federal standards limiting residential exposure to EMF from power lines. Government agencies regulate or publish guidance for some radiofrequency sources, while scientific research on long-term low-level exposures continues. ClearHome does not describe a proprietary range as a government safety threshold. The report identifies every reference used and presents the Clear Home Index as a prioritization framework, not a diagnosis or guarantee of risk. Measurement still has practical value: it can locate wiring problems, show whether distance changes a reading, identify a device or external source, guide a qualified repair, and replace fear with a map of the actual home.
We ask about electrical panels, overhead or underground lines, solar and battery systems, recent electrical work, home networking, smart devices, nurseries, offices, and the rooms that concern you.
Within the booked scope, we record baseline readings outside and measurements throughout key rooms. We test near occupied positions and investigate likely sources when a pattern is elevated or unusual.
Turning a device or circuit off, moving a router, or increasing distance can help identify a source. ClearHome documents the before-and-after conditions so the recommendation is tied to evidence rather than a generic avoidance list.
The report identifies the field type, unit, location, measurement condition, comparison source, limitation, and recommended next step. Some changes are behavioral or spatial. Others may require an electrician, network professional, utility, or building specialist.
The current website price is $650. The proposal states the home size or room limit, exterior measurements, included field types, source-investigation time, instrument details, report, travel, and any follow-up included.
Leave your email or phone and we'll reach out to confirm scope and schedule. Tell us the rooms of concern and any nearby electrical infrastructure.
No. Magnetic fields, electric fields, and radiofrequency fields have different sources, frequencies, units, and mitigation approaches. A useful survey measures and reports them separately.
There is no U.S. federal residential limit for power-line electric and magnetic fields. Other sources may be subject to equipment or exposure regulations. ClearHome reports the reference used for each comparison and does not label its own score as a government standard.
A measurement pattern may point to a wiring, grounding, or current-path issue. ClearHome can document the pattern and areas involved. A licensed electrician is responsible for diagnosing and correcting electrical work.
Usually the first readings should reflect normal use. Controlled off-and-on comparisons may then help identify a source. Follow the preparation instructions and do not change the home network immediately before the visit unless asked.
No. ClearHome does not sell shielding or remediation. Shielding can change field patterns and should not be the first response without source identification and a qualified plan.
Yes, subject to access and authorization. The proposal specifies whether the survey covers a limited room set, the full residence, the exterior, and systems that may not be operating during the visit.
