Some different things get flushed at the condo
I run a small motel company and I deal with a lot of problems, then the two of us don’t get the highest quality of people renting.
They tend to trash the rooms.
I have needed to get my septic system pumped because of gross things people have flushed down the toilet. I have needed a drain line service from tampons stuck in it. I also have messed up around with shower drainage due to soap, hair and people dumping grease down the shower drain, then gross right? I recently had an issue with a toilet not flushing. The water would go down, but no solids, but you could plunge and nothing would happen. I knew something major was causing the block. I tried to get a plumber to do the dirty task but the guy wasn’t available, so my kid and I served as plumbers for the day. I had him lift up the toilet while I shined a flashlight down it. I then found the plastic that covers desmellant was in the pipe. It was blocking everything from its angle. I then had to fish it back out and then everything flowed naturally. It just kills me that my kid and I had to waste hours out of our day because someone flushed plastic, but who flushes that down the toilet? It is so different to me that people recognize comfortable flushing. It is not a magic hole that lets all icky things disappear. It goes through the drain line and into a septic tank. It doesn’t disappear. It will come back in hopefully years down the road. Flush the wrong thing and minutes later someone is pulling it back up.
