Hello all, I have a 3 yo house that has had this problem from day one. When I run water in the bathroom sinks, I get a sewer gas smell. It doesn't happen in any other sink or the tubs/showers; just the bathroom sinks. They all have the same size PVC traps. I have private septic which is vented only through the roof (no candy cane vent out on the lawn). I've been thinking the height of the traps in those 4 sinks isn't large enough, but when I compare them to the kitchen sink, which doesn't smell, they are the same. I'm looking for any suggestions - could it be those 4 sinks are tied to their own vent, which may be slightly clogged by a bird/bee's nest or something? Thanks in advance, Bigfoot88.
