Another Tale of "Whats That Smell?"

Posted 10-21-2009 at 07:14 AM by faucetman886

Well I would have thought by now that I had covered every possibility when it comes to “Whats’s that smell” but yet the questions keep coming. Frankly I’m happy for the letters and comments along with the chance to be of help. That is why I do this blog. Late last night I received the following comment from one of my HubNet articles:
“Hi. Interesting reading! I'm trying to figure out why a sewer gas smell would appear at my mom's house, after not smelling it for the 3 previous years she's

Posted 10-07-2009 at 07:31 AM by faucetman886

I have written, in the past, about the dangers of high water pressure in your home but ran across a great blog today on the www.findplumbing.com discussion forum.

It’s common knowledge that your water pressure shouldn’t exceed 60-65 psi to avoid damage to pipe fittings, valves
