Think twice before you flush! Wipes might go down, but they don't break down. Protect our plumbing and the environment by putting wipes in the trash, not the toilet. 🌊♻️ Let's keep our water systems flowing smoothly. #NoWipesInThePipes #PattyPotty #Environment #nowipes

Toilet paper breaks down, quick & easy. Wipes don’t! Even the ones that say they’re flushable. Flush only the 3 Ps! Pee, poo & toilet paper. Anything else can clog pipes and cause damage to municipal infrastructure. #idontflush #wastewater youtu.be/56hRs54d6Aw
Are you washing Fats, Oils & Grease down the drain? Stop! They can build up in pipes and combine with unflushables like wipes - leading to blockages and toxic overflows in homes and neighbourhoods. Put ‘FOG’ in the green bin/trash! #idontflush #environment youtu.be/DQDciGN1K0Y

You've got that right idontflush.ca...That is the only answer to that question!! Only flush the #3Ps!
Q: What can I flush? A: Pee, poo & toilet paper. No exceptions. Not even so-called “flushable” wipes. Bad flushing habits can lead to big trouble. Like clogged pipes, toxic overflows and $$$ damage to municipal infrastructure. #idontflush #environment youtu.be/TlZq07MfydU

You can’t always hear a leaky toilet. Use leak detection tablets/food coloring to check for leaks as follows: 1. Remove cover of toilet tank 2. Drop leak detection tablets in tank 3. Wait 5 minutes 4. If color appears in the toilet bowl, you have a leak #FixaLeak @EPAwatersense
There's no better way to celebrate World Plumbing Day than by not flushing "flushable" wipes down the toilet.
