A smelly drain is not just unpleasant but also chances
harbouring germs and grime. Thus an unpleasant smelling drain has to be dealt
with as soon as possible to avoid further complications with your plumbing and
spreading of illness. There might be a number of reasons why your drain might
be letting out an off putting odour. Some of the most common reason include-
·
Your venting pipes are blocked.
These pipes are responsible for preventing sewer gasses from finding their way
up your drains and into your homes. If these venting pipes are blocked, the gasses
are forced up into the drain pipes and into your home.
·
The curved piping section
underneath the pipe, which is known as the p-trap should always hold some
water. This will prevent any unsavoury gasses from back flowing into the sink.
·
Smelly drains might also be because
of unkempt sewer lines. These lines need to be cleaned at regular intervals and
you will have to inform the official bodies who monitor the drains to look fix
it before it gets worse.
·
Sometimes this might also be
because of your water heaters. Timely maintenance and cleaning of your water
heaters can easily solve this problem of bad odour.
