Can you tell me if setting my water two feet away from my refrigerator would be "safe". Seems there is confusion for defining an electrical device.

Hi Monica, Yes, a few feet from a refrigerator is fine. I think the devices that have strong transmissions are the most important to keep from getting within 3 feet or so: wireless base station, cell phone, iPad, smart speaker, etc. The strength of an electromagnetic field falls off quite rapidly the further away you get from the source, so the field strength at 2 feet is not double the strength at 4 feet, but is actually 4x stronger.

Hi Monica,
Yes, a few feet from a refrigerator is fine. I think the devices that have strong transmissions are the most important to keep from getting within 3 feet or so: wireless base station, cell phone, iPad, smart speaker, etc. The strength of an electromagnetic field falls off quite rapidly the further away you get from the source, so the field strength at 2 feet is not double the strength at 4 feet, but is actually 4x stronger.
So I would say, as a rule, at least 1 foot away from standard appliances (coffee maker, toaster, etc.). Two feet away from high-amp appliances (oven, refrigerator, etc.). Three feet away from transmitting devices (cell phone, iPad, etc.).
Hope that clarifies.

I am assuming that a cell phone or iPad would be an electronic device and not a problem setting the water a foot or two away from those devices.

Hello Paul. It seems the download format has changed. When I touch the download icon nothing happens. What do I need to do to download?
