Please stop flushing wipes down your toilet - and yes, that includes so-called flushable wipes! "They aren't water soluble and don't break down like toilet paper," explains Caleb Breen, a master plumber and co-owner of Wild Water Plumbing. Yes, flushable wipes will go down your drain, but they'll likely get snagged in your sewer line before making their way to the city tap. "This can cause the main sewer line to back up, potentially causing thousands of dollars' worth of damage to flooring, carpet, walls, etc. - all of which needs to be mitigated," shares Breen.
