Hi, I have a shower that after about 5 minutes in the shower I get the smell of sewer gas. After that initial time the smell goes away. I remodeled the bathroom and had no problems with a smell until about a year and a half later.
I have had the septic tank drained, ran a hose in the vent pipe to ensure that there was no blockage, and put a larger p trap in to ensure there would be water in the trap. Nothing has worked. I am dumbfounded and even asked a friend who was a plumber. We are all mistified.
Would love to get this figured out since I am the first to take a shower and get the gassing. Wife gets to take a smelless shower.
