We are not recommended to use paper towel as toilet paper, but you are very in emergencies, you also can use paper towel as a subsitute for toilet paper.
There are some reasons for why you can not use paper towel as toilet paper.
1. Flushability:
Paper towels are not designed to boreak in water, but toilet paper is designed to break in water. Toilet paper will dishintegrate quickly in water to prevent clogging pipes and sewage systems. In contrast, paper towel is more durable and absorbent, so they do not break easily. Flushing paper towels can lead to blockabes in your plumbing and sewer lines, potentially causing signficant damage and expensive repairs.
2. Sewage and Septic System Damage:
- Using paper towels can cause issues in municipal sewage systems and septic tanks. Since paper towels don’t break down easily, they can accumulate and create clogs, leading to backups and overflows.
3. Comfort:
- Paper towels are generally rougherand less comfortable than toilet paper. They are made to be more durable and absorbent, which might make them less pleasant to use on sensitive skin.
4. Environmental Impact:
- Disposing of paper towels in the toilet rather than in the trash can lead to more waste in water treatment facilities, which might not be equipped to handle non-flushable items.
