Hi everyone on the forum. I am new and in need of help..
I just moved in the new apartment in a new building that has just finished the construction process.
The apartment is on two floors with two bathrooms one directly on top of another.
Both bathrooms smell on the actual sewer. Like from the city sewer.
I was present a lot during the construction process and saw everything (well almost).
The smell originates from the ventilation fan in the bathrooms. The smell gets way way worse if I turn on the ventilator.
Here is the deal. There are four PVC pipes one next to another and they are in a corner of the bathrooms. The first one is a sewer pipe. Literally all of the toilets, sinks, bathtubs and etc connect to it. Other 3 are for ventilations for the entire building in this building wing.
Those 4 pipes serve my apartment and 4 apartments beneath me.
One of those ventilation pipes is dedicated to my two bathrooms.
I have a reason to believe that the contractor purposely connected that specific ventilation pipe to the sewer pipe. If he did that I will rip him to shreds legally speaking. But let's not go there yet maybe I am wrong. Reason why I believe that is because they did these kind of things to me before and all because I scolded them for not following any regulations or safety measures or for work that is really substandard like for mixing up the hot and cold water pipes when connecting them to the bathtub, installing really weak electric breaker, using 2inches of tile adhesive to correct the curved wall with the tiles (which broke off) and etc. So they hate me for bringing up the obvious problems and demanding repairs.
I tried pouring water in all of the bathrooms floor drainage, the toilet has water and is well connected to the wall, the bathtubs are in use and etc. The smell doesn't originate from any of these elements.
Literally when you place your face near the ventilator you feel the sewer smell and when you turn it on for a minute or two it all goes to hell.
All ventilations have access to the roof and the sewer pipe also has a head on the roof.
Is there anything else I am missing?
I am thinking of filming the inside of the ventilation pipe with a camera and if the pipe connects with the sewer pipe... Well lets just say someone's is in big trouble.
