Trying to pin down the source of a sink odor. I have a bathroom sink that is on the adjoining wall to a kitchen sink. There is a house vent stack that I believe was utilized in a re-plumb for the drains. The kitchen sink and bathroom sink share the drain pipe that is in the bathroom. I noticed that the p-traps for both sinks are higher than the outlet pipe and that in one drawing I came across on the internet it said the the trap seal depth needs to be at least 1 1/2" below the low point of the exit pipe.
So I am thinking of lowering the p-traps to see if that gets rid of the odors. Any other ideas, other than ensuring that this is connected to the vent stack? The crawls space is pathetically small and I need to encourage my 6'4" body to go under there. LOL.
