We are trying to sell the house, nobody lives there, when people go in to take a look at it, sometimes they smell gas in the workshop (room next to cellar - where furnace is located). I have had two plumbers come out and spray water/soap, another with blow torch and finally called the gas company - NOTHING!
Gas man said he saw a reading when the furnace kicked on (rollback?) but the reading drop quickly. He said old furnace needs cleaning. Plumber came - cleaned out furnace. No smell until two days later, went back into the house and the workshop smelled again.
The workshop has two small holes to the cellar (where pipes go through walls), but the cellar doesn't smell.
The workshop has a gas line that then feeds into garage to go to kitchen upstairs to stove.
The workshop has a sewer pipe.
Help!
