Sewer smell in laundry room
We just built a new house on the exsiting site of the old house with a septic tank. Our ultlity room stinks like sewer almost of the time especially when I am doing laundry or when the air pressure changes. The smell is so bad that I get headaches from this. The laundry is in the basement along with the furnace and hot water tank (both are high effiency). I have contacted the plumber who did our new home and he seems to think everything is fine no lines are cracked, no plugs anywhere and there is a p-trap. I have tried bleach, running water down the lines and nothing is helping. I have been doing some research on line and thinking it could be my front loading washing machine (I clean the drum once a month as indicated from manufactuer)or maybe could it do something with our septic tank or HVAC system? Could the fresh air intake pipe on the outside of the house be to close to the dryer vent as they are side by side? We never had a problem in the old house please help
