Hi. Beneath our sink has begun to smell like waste gas. We've emptied beneath the sink, no water. Beneath the DW, no water. No odor from the sink drains themselves. REALLY odd.
Sticking your head under there, two things become apparent. First, it's a triple bowl sink, with 3 traps that feed into a 3way. That 3 way is NOT dropped correctly toward the wall. OK, that ultimately needs to be fixed, but... thing Two is, it's NOT LEAKING ANYWHERE! Thing 3 is that the smell is DEFINITELY coming from the joints in the 3 way itself (threaded connections).
If there is no leak, there should be no stink, right??
Any ideas?
