Hello all, hope you are well. I have an ancient septic system and several roommates. I've been having to pump the tank a couple times a year because of the buildup of TP - and we use Scott 1-ply only. My question is this: Will the (expensive) toilet paper designed for RVs to dissolve more completely, work better in my septic? I would be prepared to spend extra on TP if it would increase the time between pumpings.

Also, there is some powder you can add to an RV tank to dissolve TP. I can't locate the reference but I have heard of it. Would it help in my septic tank? Is there anything to add to the tank that would dissolve the paper? The bacteria balance seems fine, the solids are all dissolved the way they should be, it's just all this paper. Thanks and stay safe!
