Why Do I Need to Be Grounded?
Grounding, also known as earthing, is the process of reconnecting to the Earth’s natural electrical charge. In modern life, we are often insulated from this connection due to things like rubber or plastic-soled shoes and insulated sleeping arrangements. Grounding can help restore this natural connection, and many people report experiencing a variety of potential benefits, such as:
- Pain relief
- Improved sleep quality
- Enhanced immune function
- Stabilization of biological rhythms
- Reduction in chronic inflammation
- Emission of negative ions, which may help balance the positive ions generated by electromagnetic fields (EMF)

Do Shielding Canopies Work?
Yes, our Shielding Canopies have been extensively tested and are proven to work. We’ve received over 1,000 orders in 2021 alone, with thousands more in 2022-2024. Many of our customers have tested the canopies using RF radiation meters, specifically to measure the effectiveness of the shielding. We recommend purchasing an RF meter to verify the protection provided. One commonly used meter for testing High Frequency Radiation is the Trifield Meter, which measures in microwatts per square meter.
Why Trust Our Shielding Canopies?
Redemption Shield Canopies are crafted using some of the finest, most protective materials available in the market today. We aim to provide the highest quality shielding canopies to protect against electromagnetic fields (EMF) and radiofrequency radiation (RF) exposure.
What Types of Protection Do Shielding Canopies Offer?
If your home is within a mile of any cell towers, or if you live in an area with high RF radiation, a shielding canopy can help reduce your exposure to higher frequencies. Increasing global research suggests concerns regarding the effects of proximity to cell towers, making EMF protection an important consideration for many people.
Our canopies provide a breathable, protective barrier during the time you spend resting and recharging. The materials used for the canopies include Silver-Spun Cotton and Silver-Spun Nylon, both offering exceptional EMF protection. Many of our customers report great results with both fabrics, and we believe either option is a fantastic choice for your health and peace of mind.
Additional Protection for Multi-Level Living Spaces
If you live on a second floor or higher, additional underbody protection is recommended to maximize the shielding effect. This can be achieved with stainless steel fabric on the floor, grounding mats, or grounding bed sheets. You can also use a 35% grounded flat sheet placed underneath your bed or body to enhance your protection.
How to Test the Effectiveness of Your Shielding Canopy
To ensure the canopy is providing the protection you expect, we recommend testing it with an RF meter. Cell phone signal strength is not an accurate indicator of shielding effectiveness, as it doesn’t measure radiation exposure directly. RF meters, like the Trifield Meter, will give you a more accurate reading of the radiation levels before and after the canopy is in place.
Limitations of Shielding Canopies
While our shielding canopies offer significant protection, it’s important to note that achieving 100% protection would require a highly specialized setup, such as a military-grade tent with air filtration systems. Our canopies are designed to provide effective shielding within the context of typical residential or personal environments but does not block all RF radiation in extreme conditions.
Our fabrics are made from breathable materials that strike a balance between comfort and protection. While breathability is a key feature of our canopies, it’s important to note that this may result in slightly reduced shielding coverage compared to more rigid or non-breathable materials. However, our fabrics still provide excellent protection against EMF and RF radiation, while ensuring you can rest comfortably without compromising airflow.
Do I Need Protection Under My Shielding Canopy?
Yes, it is highly recommended to use a bottom layer of protection with your EMF Protection Shielding Canopy, especially if you live on a second floor or higher. The added layer helps to enhance the shielding effectiveness and provides additional protection against electromagnetic fields (EMF) and radiofrequency (RF) radiation.
We recommend the following products to complement your Shielding Canopy:
- Conductive Grounding Bed Mat: This mat helps to ground your body and improve the canopy’s shielding effect.
- Conductive Grounding Fabric: A versatile fabric that can be placed on the floor to provide additional protection under the canopy.
- Conductive Grounding Bed Sheets: These sheets can be placed under the bed or directly under your body to improve grounding and maximize shielding effectiveness.
Shielding Blankets are also an excellent option for additional protection. These blankets provide a portable layer of shielding and can be used while lounging on the couch, working at your desk, or even during travel.
Do Grounding Products Run on Electricity?
No, grounding products do not use electricity. Instead, they work by transferring the Earth’s natural energy through a properly grounded outlet or a ground rod placed directly in the Earth. This energy is then conducted through a cord to the conductive Earthing product, which facilitates the transfer of the Earth’s energy to your body.
It’s important to note that the grounding process relies on the Earth’s energy, not an electrical current, and does not involve the use of electrical power.
Should You Unplug Your Mat or Other Grounding Products When Not in Use?
No, there’s no need to unplug your grounding products when they’re not in use. You can leave the cord plugged into the grounded outlet, unless you’re moving the product to another location. Grounding products do not “run” on electricity and do not consume power, so leaving them plugged in will not increase your electricity bill.
Can You Become Electrocuted If You Use Grounding Products?
Grounding products are designed to safely transfer the Earth’s natural energy to your body and are not connected to electrical power, so they do not pose a risk of electrocution when used correctly. However, we recommend that you consult a professional electrician to ensure your outlets are properly grounded.
To verify proper grounding, you can use a circuit analyzer, which is available in our shop. Make sure to connect the grounding cord to the ground (third prong) of a properly grounded wall outlet.
If a grounded outlet is unavailable, we offer a 40-foot grounding cord that can be run outside to the ground, providing an alternative to the wall outlet setup. Many users prefer this method for its reliability.
All of our grounding cords come with a built-in 100k-ohm resistor for safety. If you have any questions, feel free to contact us — we have thousands of satisfied customers.
Important Safety Note: Always follow standard lightning safety guidelines, as recommended by the U.S. National Weather Service or the relevant weather authority in your country.
Are Grounding Mats Safe for Animals?
Yes, grounding mats are safe for animals. Just like humans, animals have an instinctual desire to connect with the Earth’s natural energy. Many indoor pets, who may not regularly have access to outdoor ground, are naturally attracted to grounding products. Our customers have reported that their pets enjoy spending time on the mats without needing any encouragement.
Safety Tip: To ensure the safety of your pets, it’s always a good idea to secure the grounding cords by taping them down, as pets may be curious about the cords.
Many customers have shared that their pets love using Pet Grounding Mats, and they’ve been tested to provide the same benefits for animals as they do for humans.
