I installed a stand-up shower turning a half-bath into a full bath. I installed all the water feed and drain and have no leaks and all works well. My problem is that when I first turn on the hot water I get a foul smell for a the first minute of water running. The smell is coming from the water, not up from the drain. I don't have this problem in the shower/bath in the other bath room.
The new shower is tapped into the water line only 6 inches from where the other shower in the house is attached. I have 1/2 inch copper lines soldered with 1/2 inch iron pipe from the water controls up to the shower head.
Any ideas on this will be greatly appreciated.
