it is listed on the package that they are safe and I have septic and have had no problems at all. I hope this helps

They say they are, but you should use your own judgement. You just don't know who to believe these days, especially when it comes to food. I like them, because they are small enough to seem as if they are better than flushing the huge wipes. I hope this helped.

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

I use this and have a septic tank. It doesn't say either way on the packaging. You could call Charlie ' s directly and ask. I don't see how it would be different than any other cleaning product for affecting your septic.

I can't tell you if it is safe for septic tanks, but works good for cleaning out the roots in my 4 inch sewer pipe and keeps them clear. I use it once a year to keep my lines clear of roots.

Nope, I have a septic and I checked this too... On the bottle it says Septic Safe! I'll post a picture in a second.http://www.amazon.com/gp/customer-media/product-gallery/B0047528HM/ref=cm_ciu_pdp_images_0?ie=UTF8&index;=0

These are generally safe for flushing. The only reason I could see this having any issues is if there is a clog with in your buildings pipes. Once past that however there is no issue. I would suggest getting a drain cleaner and using that if you are concerned of a clogging issue. Toilet paper can cause issues if there is already a buildup.

We don't have a septic system, so I cannot answer your question.Check with your contractor. Good luck.

Yes. Should be treated as a small septic tank following code, usually a min of 10 ft from the house and buried with plea gravel or crushed stone on the bottom and surrounding the unit. The Access Riser is also a good bet. It allows you to have the septic cylinder lower for gravity feed from the house and allows the pipes to be covered. Don't forget the required shut off and check valves.

I don't see how you can be sure they are safe. I would return the corroded ones, at least.

I think the question should be " is it bad for septic tanks?'.....the answer is "no".....we are on a septic tank and we use this product every six months following a root obstruction a few yrs back.....it does not harm the septic system and we have been root free....RRR

Although I am not using a septic system, I would presume it is safe as the ingredients are pretty eco friendly. Contacting C&D; directly would confirm this. It is far superior to the drop ins as it does not wear out the internal fixtures inside the toilet. Good luck

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

As a Civil Engineer I specify this for sewage pumping chambers as a high water alarm if the pump fails. It goes in the pump tank, not the septic tank.

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

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).

I have used this product for many years in two houses that have septic system and have had no problem. The amount of chlorine put into the system is so small that it will not upset the balance of bacteria in the septic tank.

It doesn't say anything about septic systems on the back. We have a septic tank and I have used this product for several years with no damage to our septic tank.
