Is it really ok to flush the sand in the toilet without causing any clog in the toilet?

I have been using it or months now and have had no problems with it, and I have three cats using it!

Beware. There's a new formula that's much coarser and has been reported by others in these comments to clog the toilets. Make sure you get the old formula (fine sand in texture) not the new one (grains as big as barley or rice). If you have new formula test it asap while you can still return it.

Works great, regular clumping litter will give you problems but this stuff is great. It does not clump.

Using the word "sand" is kind of misleading. The product may be sand-like, but it is definitely flushable. We've been using this product for 3 years without issue.

Totally. It's a fine clay litter formulated to be flushed. Just follow the directions for flushing it (not safe for septic tanks).

We have had no problems flushing it. We have city sewage and there hasn't been any clogs.

We love our Toto toilet but more for looks, height and efficiency. No issues with clogging, but we've only had it 3 months---not that I've ever had a clogged toilet to begin with. A recent article talks about toilet paper and wipes that are more the cause of clogging due to difficulty in breaking down. Hope that helps.

You do NOT need to flush this filter before using. We installed ours, using the filter which came with the unit, and began using it right away with no problems. We are very happy with it.

Just purchasing an item will not solve your problem. In order for me to answer your question I need to know a bit more about the flush issue.

I would say it does better than the swirly-type toilet. It also has the sanagloss which resists dirt better. Never had one clog with this toilet and that is far more important than the occasional mess people make. I clean mine quickly every day as recommended by flylady using MILD detergents, and could not be happier.

I think it is comparable to other better flushing toilets. Mine is great. No clogs.

I only back flush for 2mins and repeat several times until water runs clear. Sure, if you let it go, I imagine you would have a major problem somewhere. I love the Flush King. It works great and leaves tanks relatively odor-free.

I have a sand filter and have not experienced any problem. Filter pressure has not been an issue and I backwash no more frequently than before using this product.

As far as I know no they are not. The are pretty thick and I wouldnt intentionally flush them. That being said, one has fallen in the toilet and I have flushed it.

No! We have had 3 clogged toilets on our septic system since we tried this TP out. Will go back to our other brand.

You can rinse the sand by hand in a sieve ( I recommend that) before you install the filter until the smaller particles are flushed away. Or you could remove the backwash cap and turn the dial to rinse to rinse the sand while already in the filter. Also...after you backwash to waste you should turn the dial to rinse the sand before going back to normal operation.

Yes, since all of the tank contents is pulverized with the water pressure. In regards to directly into toilet the water pressure is high and will probably make a mess from back splash.

No, do not put one in each toilet. Any one toilet, in the home, will flush the contents to the septic tank.

I had to Google rear flush. It came up with rear discharge. If that is the question, the answer is no. It uses standard O-ring on the floor. I should warn that the toilet itself is exactly as described. the flush mechanism inside the tank seems only to understand low consumption flush. It seldom works for any splid waste in one flush.

I have had no issues at all with these. I do not recommend flushing more than one at a time to be on the safe side.

I have used this litter for many years and have ALWAYS flushed it without a single problem. It's the primary reason I buy it. Clay litter should not be flushed because it stays in very hard clumps, but as soon as you drop a clump of WBCL in the toilet you can see it start to break up and dissolve. It is entirely organic and therefore poses no problems to sewers or septic systems that I am aware of.

Maybe if you step on it and push it down, but otherwise I wouldn't think so. We track sand and small rocks over ours and I just sweep it off. Every once in a while I pull it away and sweep underneath and so far no clogging.
