FYI...
...those popular "flushable" wipes advertised for use with potty training toddlers live up to their name only in that they will indeed go right down the toilet. The will NOT, however, travel quickly out to your septic or sewer system. Instead, they will hang on even the slightest burr inside the pipe, rapidly creating a scale model of the Hoover Dam. Consequences vary. Maybe a toilet will simply overflow. Or perhaps you'll notice a general slowdown of all your drains. Or maybe you'll get really lucky and the pressure will cause a pipe to burst over your triplets' room sending a short, sharp shower of sh*t raining down onto the two-year-old, un-patchable Berber carpet. Thanks to the friendly staff of Superior Plumbing and Serve Pro of Birmingham for your prompt response. And a big "Up Yours!" to the makers of flushable wipes.
