I am in the process of getting a new roof. I have 5 bathrooms in my house, and never knew what a stink pipe is, until now. My roofer asked me what 2 extra pipes that were blocked off were, I told him that I had no idea, and implied that if they are blocked, then they must not be working.
I am now realizing that he probably has no idea that I have 5 bathrooms. I am also wondering how blocked off they were. He has removed the 2 'blocked' pipes and roofed over them. I still have 2 stink pipes coming out of my roof. Are 2 pipes sufficient, or do we need to rip off where he covered and make sure the pipes go thru?
Does each toilet need a stink pipe, or will my 2 pipes let out enough of the air to allow the entire sewage system to continue working and my house smelling fresh?
