Facial tissues are such a useful product; we use them for everything from blowing our noses to removing makeup. Along with toilet paper and paper towel, they are one of the most used paper products in a household. But how to dispose of them? Can you flush tissues down the toilet? While tissues may seem to be similar to toilet paper, in truth they are quite different and must be handled differently. Toilet paper is designed to disintegrate quickly and easily once it comes into contact with water.
If you're an owner-occupier, you can call whichever plumber you like. But if you're renting then your landlord may have specified which emergency plumber you have to call.
This may mean the costs are covered, but it also means that if you don't use that plumber you may be liable for the full cost. What if you don't have a nominated emergency plumber, or if the agent's changed plumbers and hasn't notified you? You still need a plumber, so call one, but you'll most likely need to pay upfront and attempt to recover costs from the agent later.
Make sure you keep all receipts and be prepared that you may have an uphill battle on your hands. Toilet paper has a unique requirement. It needs to safely navigate the array of pipes, bends and subterranean channels between toilet and wastewater treatment plant without causing any blockages, and without the need for human intervention.
Toilet paper needs to be readily water soluble, while still being strong enough to safely do its job. This important characteristic is a key element in our toilet paper tests, and according to Sydney Water, anything that takes longer than a minute to dissolve from when it goes down your toilet can cause problems. It's not just a question of blocking your own toilet — you could affect your neighbours' plumbing too.
No, you can't. In contrast to toilet paper, things like tissues and kitchen towels are designed to retain their strength as much as possible, especially when wet. Flush a tissue or paper towel down the toilet and it won't break down, at least not readily, so it's a prime candidate to clog your pipes.
No — they're just not that flushable. We've reported widely on this vast problem and as a result manufacturers have 'redesigned' their flushable wipes, claiming they're flushable — but they're not. We've found even the new ones still don't break down readily in the sewer system. Look closely at the wrapping of your toilet paper and you might see a note telling you to finish the job with one of the new, improved flushable wipes. Don't — it's unlikely to work.
