We moved into our brand new house one year ago,and recently we are noticing a urine like smell coming from the tank.What could possibly cause something like this and is it dangerous to your health,oh,noticing mention that it's not a cleanliness problem,my bathroom is very clean,and this is very disturbing to say the least,Anyone who can shed a little light on this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks Much.

Fancy face... you are noticing smell from the toilet BOWL... or from the toilet tank? I can understand the bowl... but the tank? Look inside tank.. if it is the tank... what do you see..

Or are you referring to another kind of tank.. Get back to me.

Just one caution. If you use products containing bleach in the bowl and then do #1, without flushing, some of the amonia in the urine combines with the bleach producing chlorine gas.

I'm clueless with smells in the tank, unless the water has excess chlorine for some reason, but then all water should smell.
