Flushable wipes

[thirty6]

Just wanted to share

We use ( used to use I should say) kandoo flushable wipes for my kids. I found out the expensive way,they aren't all that flshable as my main line was clogged and had to be snaked out. Something to consider is all....

Do not flush any wipes no matter what it says on the label. If you have a slight dip in the pipe you will clog, if its cast iron theres a very good chance it will get caught. I try to tell this to people all the time and they do it over and over and over and just keep cloging the main. They all just say the same thing "the label says i can". You just cant help some people. If you main is PVC and newer you may not have an issue but i still wouldnt do it and i know this one is harder but the same goes for tampons.

I was just going to post the same thing. This is even more important than the wipes since just about all households need to deal with this issue.

well... ones that I do know that works is the Charmin wipes.. and it does end up breaking apart when water is forced through them. So these do break up in water just like normal TP.
