Hi! I have a PVC pipe in my pantry (where hot water heater is located) and a pipe from the hot water heater enters there. I believe a plumber said it was the relief valve/pipe? Anyway, there is a terrible smell coming from it. It used to come occasionally (but never where I could figure out if it was when I ran hot water, or it rained, etc). The last plumber to come out said maybe a trap was dry and air was getting out so I should pour water in every time I smelled it. Well...i did that for a week and it's worse than ever. Smells nearly constantly and stronger rather than coming and going.
Would appreciate any advice. As a side note, the water coming from faucets smells fine.
