Grounding, also known as earthing, is when humans make an electrical connection to the earth’s surface electrons. The simplest form involves walking barefoot in the grass, dirt, or sand or swimming in the ocean.

If you take proper care of the products as outlined in the included instructions they can last many years. The sheets and pillowcases (like all sheets and pillowcases) are designed to last about 3 years. The mats can last much longer.

We recommend using a simple, natural, additives-free liquid dish soap and warm water to hand-wash your mat every couple of weeks if you use it every day. Do not put in the washing machine or dishwasher.

Sheets and pillowcases can be machine washed in warm or cold water and tumble dried on low. Do not use bleach, fabric softeners or dryer sheets.

Yes, pets love grounding mats!

No, all grounding products work optimally with bare skin contact.

Any solid contact is sufficient though, whether at the feet, hands or face. Wearing pajamas to bed is fine.

Yes. Test the outlet regardless of what form it takes, but a surge bar is just an extension of an outlet and should be grounded if the outlet is properly grounded.

If you have a non-US outlet you'll need to use an adaptor (not provided, sold elsewhere).
