I noticed sewer smell from A/C vents about three weeks ago when the heat is not on.
When I turn heat on, it smells less(but is still there)My husband got int the crawl space wondering if there is any leak from sewerge pipes, but he could not find any ovious leak.
When we opned the smll door to the crawl space, we noticed that was the exact smell coming form A/C vents. We do not have the sewer smell outside of the house or upstairs at all it comes only from downstaris' vents.
The smell is more intense from the vents closer to furnace somewhat, but if is coming from all the vents downstairs.
The furnace is about 10 years old and never had any issue before. Since we turn the hear off at night, the smell in the house gets worst in the morning.As soon as we turn the heat on in the morning, we get less smell.(we do still smell it,though.)
I will really appreciate any suggestion. Thank you in advance. We are so desperate especially because we will be selling the house soon.
