Hi all!
This is my problem.
My neighbor's house has 3 waste vents thru the roof. 2-2" and 1-3", all pvc.
This house is about 60+ years old, and has remodelling done.
She does not live there full time,And has not for 20 years since she purchased the place.
She is maybe there 2 weekends a month at max, but at times not there for 6 weeks.
Septic tank was replaced about 10 years ago.
At any time of the year, and which way the wind is blowing, it smells bad around the outside of the house.
I know it's coming out of the vents cuz I got on the roof and put my nose near the vents.
I am the caretaker, so I check the house everyday, and also run water in the sinks and toilets couple times a week.
The main waste lines, 3", are all pvc, and branch out like a "t" through the foundation. One line is about 45' long and the other is 50-55" long.
There are no traps in the main lines, to the septic tank, just clean outs.
So!, How can I stop this smell outside the house!
Can I get some AAV and put on the vent stacks? Help please!
