    I'm surprised these companies aren't getting sued for selling their products as "septic safe" when they really aren't

    • @OxygenPeople

      they call them flushable and not septic safe specifically because technically most things are "flushable"

    • @MrMali22
      @MrMali22 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Because the ones that say septic safe are. They're not all made the same. Like cottonelle breaks down almost as fast as toilet paper.

      And we don't even know that these are flushable wipes. He just put that after finding baby wipes in there.

      One of the regulatory bodies in Australia tried suing the manufacturers of flushable wipes and lost.

    Might I suggest a lanyard for using your phone around the honey hole. I have frightening flashbacks from when I was a honey dipper and lost my flip phone into a tank. Luckily it was just a flip phone and I recovered it with my hose. I never used it again. Thanks for bringing back memories and the sweet sound of flowing water. Be careful and enjoy that black gold. You're a good man.

    It's still amazing to me that 80% of homeowners have NO idea how their homes work.

    So you were there two years ago for the same issue and these clients are still using those wipes? What intelligent people they must be.

      @Bold One I don't see how being overweight warrants flushing anything other than your waste and TP down the toilet.

    I can't imagine doing your job. I hope you get paid very well. Honestly, for the work you have to do, you should make a lot more than any pencil pusher, cushy white-collar job.

    Almost anything is flushable; it doesn’t mean you should. A live squirrel, gold coins and your wallet with all your cash, cards and ID is flushable, but you would never do it, just like you shouldn’t throw down flushable wipes just cause they’re say they’re flushable. They should ban that phrase for wet wipes.

    I dont get why they bury the lids? If they need to be regularly cleaned and serviced why bury them for you to dig out?

    Are there any wipes that you recommend? Or are they all the same? Asking for a friend!

      My dad became obsessed with using wipes and our cesspool got blocked and ended up filling up, so sewage started backing up our lowest shower and toilet. Cesspool guys couldn’t even vacuum the tank properly because the wipes were clogging their hose. And these were “septic safe flushable wipes” from Costco.

    • @CA2AL

      My husband uses them. I keep saying they must be thrown in the trash after use. I pray he listens to me.

  • @jimk4928

    What brand of "flushable wipes" were they using?

    • @119Agent

      Definitely not Cottonelle. They actually dissolve like toilet paper.

    Rubbers can be just as bad. A guy I work with had his recently divorced son and new girlfriend move in with him for a while and blocked up the septic pump with prophylactics. Guess the son was getting plenty of action the way it sounded. Ha ha

    You should say "let's get suckin" when you turn the vacuum on.

    What if you had your septic pumped out like a a month ago completely all the tanks every one of them and then a month later there's water all the way up to the top of your tanks

    5:01: If those septic-friendly wipes are clogging that system, then those septic-friendly wipes are not so septic-friendly after all. Shyit.

    • @CA2AL

      Just greywater. The poop sinks to the bottom of the tank and they greywater floats above it. Mind you, I am not an expert but learning about septic systems since we have one.

    • @ihavenoname6724
      @ihavenoname6724 ปีที่แล้ว

      Correct, or they could use a bathroom bin to dispose of their wet wipes and toilet paper (that's what we do).
