Description
By installing dirty electricity filters in your home, you can significantly reduce the amount of dirty electricity, and therefore reduce your exposure to EMF radiation. An EMF filter can also potentially lower your electricity bill.
Easy install
Our plug-in dirty electricity filter couldn’t be simpler to use — just plug it into a socket and it gets to work reducing dirty electricity immediately. No wiring, no electrician needed.
Technical detail
The filter contains a 10 microfarad AC mains-voltage-rated capacitor, a discharging resistor, and a fuse. Unlike some dirty electricity plug filters on the market — some of which aren’t even internally fused — ours includes an electric-field screen inside the case, connected to the Earth pin. Our DE2 units are fully approved by European safety standards.
How many filters do I need?
Please see the info below and/or our video called Dirty Electricity Filters: How Many Do I Need And Where Do I Put Them?
The answer to this common question is: every home and room is different and will require a different number.
For example, in Glynn’s home, the power gets switched off at night (if you think that sounds crazy, give it a try – you may well be amazed at how good you feel when you wake up). But because of this, there is no need for dirty electricity filters in the bedrooms. However, there are four offices in the home, each requiring a minimum of four filters. There are also four in the lounge, two in the dining room, and four in the kitchen, but none in the bathrooms.
How to work out how many filters you need:
Work on approximately two filters per frequently-used room plus a couple extra for offices and sitting rooms, and none for bathrooms.
(Once you test with the monitor, you will know if you need more filters or fewer. At that point, you can order more or return any extras you don’t need. See our Returns Policy.)
To test the levels of D.E., you will need a dirty electricity line meter, which you can buy from us.
When the monitor and filters arrive, follow the enclosed instructions, plug the monitor in and then the filters until the monitor displays a figure that falls within recommended healthy levels in the instructions.

What is dirty electricity?
Dirty electricity (DE), also known as dirty mains, dirty power, or electrical pollution, describes electromagnetic noise on the mains wiring of a house when it isn’t supposed to be there. Your electrical supply is meant to carry just a 50Hz sine wave, but this is rarely the case in practice — there are almost always significant second and third harmonics (100Hz and 150Hz in Europe, 120Hz and 180Hz in the USA), though these aren’t thought to be any more harmful than the pure sine wave itself.
What are the effects of dirty electricity on my appliances?
Dirty electricity typically interferes with the optimum functioning of electronic appliances, creating power-line electromagnetic interference (EMI). As appliances draw power from building wiring, they receive erratic surges and spikes of energy alongside standard electricity — many aren’t equipped to handle this, leading to malfunction.
Does this filter actually work, and could it save me money?
Yes — the filter’s capacitor reduces high-frequency noise on your circuit, and in some cases this can also reduce energy loss, potentially lowering your electricity bill. Results depend on correctly identifying which rooms need filters — see the guidance above.
