he all,
I recently bought a house and at some point the bathroom was remodeled and the sink was not tied back into the vent pipe. so ocassionally it smells at that sink. We just pull the stopper but is there a solution to this? I can access all the plumbing in basement but it was originally connected in the wall/ can I just add a small vent into basement? its unfinished dirt floor. Reconnecting to the original vent in basement possible? it seems very hard its old pipe, house bulit in the 30's. Reconnecting in the wall would mean ripping out a wall so id really rather not do that. Thanks
