[quote=Anonymous]We had this smell, which would happen occasionally in our basement over the course of years. We could not figure out what it was. Checked all the toilets. Poured water down floor drains. Ripped up carpet to look for hidden floor drains. Looked at a bunch of other possibilities. Finally we started poking holes in our basement ceiling and found it was a cracked cast iron vent pipe. Unfortunately it was not an easy or inexpensive fix. Fortunately we were just about to have a renovation/addition done so we just added it to the list, though that meant we couldn't use one toilet for a few weeks before we moved out. We're thankful we finally realized what the issue was since it had bothered us for years and my H had spent so much time and effort trying to identify the issue. [/quote]
