Sewer gas smell in the bathroom —- first floor and basement, but it is not constant?
I've been trying to figure out where a sewer gas smell in my new home (new to me, but is 5 years old) is coming. In the basement, I had a plumber cap some tubes that were not covered, but no change. He went back and checked the seals are held in our septic system and said they were tight, but without putting something "type of caulk on them before that close. Still no change. Note that the smell is not constant. Besides, I have the drains in the basement, so there is no drain traps. Now Last night, I noticed a sewer smell in the bathroom on the first floor. I put my hands and knees and is in the toilet base. Does this mean that my husband should take the toilet and put in a wax ring? By the way, the smell is gone today. Is this normal for the smell to come and go; —- not want to pull a bath if I have too. On the other hand, if this is my problem, do you think that is why sometimes the smell in the basement? Thanks for the tips!
I do not know where you live, however I have a possible answer. I work in the restaurant industry in the exhaust vents in the bathrooms are on the ceiling. On certain days, the smell comes in the package of health services due to bad weather outside. It's the same type of pressure system that causes smog hanging in a valley instead of disipating as normal. On other days, because heating and air conditioning are related to exhaust, the smell can be absorbed again by the heating system and cooling. In your case, your air conditioner or furnace on the roof? If not, have some an air leak check on the roof. Is the proper height in relation with its roofline. If the engines work well to draw the smell? Is there a sewer gas odor outside that could indicate a leak that could be just be going home?
