I believe they are. I asked my washer repairman and my sceptic man but neither knew. I found this web site that answers this and other questions: http://www.laundrytree.com/using-soapnuts/faqs.html I hope this is helpful to you. The septic question is near the bottom of the list, which is quite comprehensive about soap nuts. I have been using them for about a year now and will never ever go back to commercial laundry products. One secret as with any laundry soap is not to overload your machine. It helps to place the nuts in a bit of hot water before putting them into the machine; I use a clean jam jar for this purpose. The smell I was getting in my HE washer disappeared almost entirely once I stopped using that sticky soap with all the dyes. My clothes smell much cleaner! I love this product and will always use it from now on. I haven't check the cost but I also believe it is cheaper per load than commercial stuff. So in the end this web site is probably right, and the nuts are actually beneficial for septics. It makes sense: you aren't putting chemicals in your septic. The nuts are extremely low-sudsing, too.

Suggest calling the manufacture to see if it's safe to use with a septic system.

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.

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

Yes. It is septic safe. I was actually told to add a 1/4 cup to our water softner system about every 3 months to help keep pipes clear of iron build up.

I have had excellent results with Green Pig Solution, and I deposit one packet in one of my four toilets every three months. The solution keeps your septic in good condition----not your toilet. Hope I've been of some help.

I believe the active ingredient is sulfonic acid. It is environmentally safe and will not hard septic systems.

I have a septic system and green pig works great on it. I was having some overflow on my lines and it cleared that up. I also use a septic safe(northern) toilet paper. I had been using Rid-X, but now I am a green pig believer.J. KingJ. King

I'm really not sure. I've read on other websites that the Kaboom bowlblaster powder product is septic safe as well as their tile cleaner, so one could assume this liquid bowlblaster is safe as well. If you'd like to be completely certain I would suggest contacting the makers thru the product website www.kaboomkaboom.com

Yes, look for the Safe for septic tank logo on Ecover product to check for septic tank safety. All of their products are completely biodegradable. :)

I see no reason why it would be an issue for septic tanks. It is only magnets and simply balances the minerals out so they don't deposit on your toilet.
