Why Spot works with septic systems
A septic tank needs detergent that dissolves fully and does not overload the system with extra chemicals or solids. Spot is built for that:
- Dissolves fully. A Spot sheet is gone in under 60 seconds, in hot or cold water.
- No phosphates. The formula is plant-based and phosphate-free.
- Easy to dose. Half a sheet for a small or medium load means you are less likely to overdose.
- Grey-water safe. Fine for RVs, cabins and campsites with grey-water rules.
How to use Spot with a septic tank
- Put the sheet in the drum with the clothes.
- Use half a sheet for small and medium loads; one sheet for large loads.
- Spread laundry across the week instead of running many loads in one day.
- Have the tank inspected and pumped on the schedule your installer recommends.
RVs, cabins and boats
Spot packs flat, weighs almost nothing and is grey-water and septic safe. That is why it suits RVs, campers, cabins and boats, including hand washing in a basin when you do not have a machine.
