I've been using "Super Iron Out" for years. I've not had a problem to date with my septic system. Read more at: http://www.superironout.com/drain-uses.php

Yes it is. We have a septic tank system, and I've used this product for years. No problems.

It is safe to eat, so I would assume a septic system should be able to handle it

I would think so, it didn't say that it wasn't safe for septic tanks. And yes, the cord comes with it.

My wastewater is divided into two systems septic (toilet) and greywater (everything but toilet). The Robic label for K37 says to use twice yearly. I'd rather stay on the side of caution so I use K37 in my septic system every 2-3 months and their K87 (Soap Digester) in my greywater system every 2-3 months as well. I figure a few bucks a month is worth it if it avoids thousands in a new septic system. If you only have one combined system I'd recommend using the Soap Digester occasionally in addition to the K37.

Stain Solver is TOTALLY safe to use in septic systems. It actually enhances the biologic activity of the beneficial bacteria in tanks to help break down solids.

I don't have a septic tank as I live in a high-rise. Haven't had any problems flushing wipes down toilet.

The package says yes, but I don't have a septic tank so I have not tested this claim.

The manufacturer claims it is septic safe right on the box. Our septic service says it is safe since the amount of chlorine/bromine that toilet tablets introduce into a septic cistern is minimal (toilet water is typically 10%-15% of the water put into a cistern, so it is strongly diluted). Finally, I have seen a scientific paper where they actually tested the effect that typical toilet tablets have on the bacteria in septic systems (chlorine type, bromine should be similar since it has a similar biological mechanism), and it was found that there was no discernible difference from the "control" systems (getting the exact same sewage).

To prevent costly pumping expense, use 6 lbs. of Thrift to treat a 500-gallon capacity septic tank. Pour Thrift along with very hot water down sink or tub drain (Not in Toilet), and continue to run hot water for a minute after all Thrift is down drain. Add 6 lbs. of Thrift once a year to prevent the build up of grease, and solid waste. This will ensure a proper working drain field and prevent costly repair or replacement. Proven effective and satisfying professionals for over 40 years. Hello. The item is completely safe to use in a spectic system.

I checked their website and it says, "Yes. Dishwasher Magic will not harm septic systems, plumbing, or the appliance in any way."

Septic tank safe detergent should not contain phosphates and have low levels of surfactants. I do not see phosphates in the list of ingredients and the surfactants (which are in almost all detergents) are plant based therefore create less suds and foaming which is better for the septic system. It will be safer than any brand name commercial detergent. If you google septic safe detergent you will ecover listed on many sites.

Has anyone used this that has a septic system? Does it harm your septic at all?

I do not know. I haven't opened up my septic tank since I put the filter in; but to my knowledge, we have had no problems.

My main answer is I don't know. But, I have a strong suspicion that it would be safe. Because it's biodegradable, it will break down easily. The info I was able to find about this matter also said it was safe. It's just hard to know for certain. If I were you, I would definitely use it with a septic system but, again, I'm not 100% certain. Hope that helps!!
