Hi,
Before I ask this question, I just say that I've read a lot of other questions here that describe a similar problem. However, the answers don't seem to solve the problem I have.
Ok what is the problem you ask? It’s this;
My wife and I have lived in a condominium for 4 years. We are the only people to have lived there as it is new construction (or was when we moved in). In the last six weeks or so we have begun to notice a skunk like odor in our en suite bathroom.
The smell comes and goes but we cannot find a source for it.
The smell is confined to the en-suite and isn't evident in any other room of the house.
I have deconstructed and thoroughly cleaned the sink. I have used drain cleaner in the shower. I have replaced the showerhead. I've even bought a toilet brush to scrub the shower drain.
Each time I do one of these things the smell seems to go only to return after at most a couple of days.
The smell seems to be linked to running water but the water itself doesn't smell. It's mostly a miasma.
The one place where there doesn't seem to be a smell is around the toilet.
Like I said I've seen a number of questions along the same line as this one but the answers I seen contain things I've tried. Anyone out there have any suggestions.
