Can this be used for toilets connected to the city sewer system which clogs frequently? If so how often to use?

Nope. Used to break down the solids in a septic system where all the solids are in your septic tank. City sewer is free flowing. If you have clogs it can be your toilet drain or your vent stack is blocked by a birds nest. Waste of money to use on city sewer.

There are 3 toilets in my home. Do I use 1 gel pack per month for each toilet or just 1 for entire home? Thx.

Only use 1 gel pack monthly. We have 4 toilets, I alternate the monthly gel pack in the different toilets. One month it's the master BR toilet; next month it's the guest BR toilet; following month it's the downstairs toilet, etc.

Is it better to not use water prior to using rid-x

They suggest using rid-x by flushing it at the end of the day when no more water will be used. Personally that is the last thing I do before going to bed. I use it on the last day of the month and that way I can always remember to flush it. I hope that helps. It is a good product and I have used it for almost 50 years and have never had a septic tank problem.

Already bought rid x septic tank treatment septi pacs and don't want to return them, can they be used in and left in an rv black tank for a week?

Although Rid-X® Septic Treatment System is not formulated for use in RV holding tanks, it will not harm the tank or gaskets. We recommend using Rid-X® RV Holding Tank Deodorizer. Rid-X Holding Tank Deodorizer products stop odors instantly and deliver long lasting odor-control. You may wish to contact your RV manufacturer for additional information regarding your RV’s holding tanks.

Works great. Easy to store. My favorite part? I don’t have to make an extra stop at the hardware store to pick this up. RidEx is one of those things you gotta have in your household. But, is it always top of mind? No. But, now that I can get it at Amazon, I’m on a regular routine with septic maintenance. One click and it shows up at my front door.

I've been using Rid-X Septic System Treatment monthly for almost three years, and it’s been a lifesaver for my septic tank! Here’s what I appreciate about it and why I’d recommend it to anyone with a septic system. Pros: Reliable Maintenance: Rid-X has kept my septic tank running smoothly without any issues since I started using it. I don’t have to worry about the system failing or clogging up, which gives me peace of mind. Convenience: Using it monthly is straightforward and takes almost no time. I simply add it as directed, and it works its magic, saving me from more intensive maintenance. Effective Performance: I haven’t had to treat my septic system with extra care or take any special precautions. Rid-X takes care of it so well that I can go about my normal routines without worry. Cons: Monthly Routine: Though easy to use, it does require remembering to add it each month. It’s not difficult, but it would be great if there were a longer-lasting treatment option for even more convenience. Overall, Rid-X has been an excellent investment for my septic system. With this monthly treatment, my septic tank stays in top shape, and I don’t have to treat it like a baby. Highly recommend it for worry-free septic maintenance!
