I have a septic tank system and sometimes when I am outside I can smell sewage but it seems to depend on which way the wind is blowing. The main vent pipe is on the backside roof of the 2 story house. The septic tank is also on the same side of the house as the vent. So I can't tell if the smell is coming from a septic tank issue or the vent pipe. I was wondering if I can put a one way vent cap on the vent pipe? So that air can come into the vent but the stink can't come out. I am in the northeast and we have had a lot of rain lately, granted not as much as Seattle but close, can the smell come through the wet ground? I know that the lid to the septic tank is just below the sod. The lid is on a cement riser.
