Introduction The drainage system in our house and locality plays a pivotal role in keeping up the “goodness” in our lives. It helps us in getting rid of the wastes and dirty waters in the bathroom and kitchen of our house, thereby contributing to the cleanliness majorly. Therefore, it is very important that we keep our drains not only clean but properly maintain it so that it does not give us pain in any way. And with pain, it means, the blocking of the drainage system, an unhygienic drainage, smelly drains, etc. There are so many reasons why the drains start smelling foul after a certain period of time and we shall know them first, before jumping to the remedies of getting rid of the smelly drains.
The causes of drain odour • Bacteria and clogs– the blocked drains and the accumulation of bacteria are the most common reason of the drain smelling foul. Whenever you notice that the sink or the pipeline is clogged and the smell is coming from thereon, be assured that it is because of the buildup of bacteria on the pipeline due to the accumulation of stuff like hair, grease, and other debris on the pipeline. • Water issues– the sulfate concentration of the water makes it smelly and when it comes in contact with the water heaters, it reacts in a way that creates rotten egg kind of smell, thereby leading to the foul smelly drain.
Cont.. • sewer smells– in most cases where maybe the drain is left unused for long, the sewer smell rises up the drain and causes it to smell foul. Also, sewer gas leaks can show the same consequences if left untreated. • Mould/mildews– in case of leakage in the pipe, the mould or the mildews start building up. When they grow in large quantity, they start smelling foul which in turn causes the foul smelling of the entire drainage system. Well, these were the most relevant reasons why a drain smells foul. Now, we must move on to the ways of getting rid of the smelly drains at the most convenient tactics.
