01
Why the pipe objects
Many wipes stay intact far longer than toilet paper and can snag, braid together and contribute to sewer blockages.
02
Do this instead
Place used wipes in a lined trash bin. A flushable claim is not the same as rapid disintegration in your plumbing.
03
Already did it?
One wipe may pass, but do not flush again to test your luck. If the toilet rises, drains slowly or gurgles, stop using it and call for help.
