Do you have a septic tank?

Er no.


Mmm thought not ;-)

The point was to prevent chemicals used to soften the
scale from being flushed into the septic tank.

Presume you mean dissolve, not soften?

Er no. Using chemicals makes it easier to remove the
limescale.

It still requires manual intervention, i.e. scraping.

Only not as vigorously.

It only dissolves it in the adverts.

You put it in. Come back two hours later, or overnight.

Flush the bog and its gone. In your dreams.


Anyhoo given that a decent septic tank worth having probably has a
capacity of 2-2.5k litres+, all this fretting over a couple of
occasional litres of dilute acid or bleach seems a trifle ott.

The OP thought otherwise, and rather than seek to question
the basic assumptions on which his question was based, I provided
a solution which met his requirements.

I hardly feel that sticking a balloon down each of the 5
bogs he needs to initially clean will present any great
hardship. Do you ?
