There are problems that are not seen and bad odors in the bathroom are one of them. We give you some small clues to avoid them.

Siphons

Bad odors in a bathroom can come from the drains. Estospipesconnect to the sewage system and to prevent the arrival of odors they have siphons. A trap prevents the passage of foul-smelling air by leaving a section of the pipe blocked with water. If this water dries up and disappears, the passage of the smell from the sewer is assured. That is why it is vital that we periodically use the bathroom sink, bidet or bathtub to be sure that odors are controlled.

When we have bathrooms or toilets without windows, ventilation is done with ducts that connect the bathroom with chimneys on the deck. Sometimes these ducts are shared (old houses generally) and it is possible that a reform in the lower or upper house has spoiled the operation of the ventilation. If so, the first thing is to check it and after a proper diagnosis that our house insurance could do, return the ventilation to its original state or use extractors that help us get the air out of the bathroom.

Those things that need to be cleaned

• A bad smell never comes from shiny. It is easy to understand that a bad smell comes from organic remains, let’s say in poor condition. In a bathroom these remain in many cases in the previously mentioned siphons. In modern houses there will be a siphon can on the floor, which we will identify as a round lid, which we will have to open and, wearing a good rubber glove, remove the waste that we will find there. In the case of old bathrooms, the siphons can be under the sink or the bidet and usually have a stopper that once unscrewed lets the waste out.
• In general Regardless of the above, the ideal is to maintain a good cleanliness of the sanitary ware and periodically pour bleach into hot (never boiling) water down the drains.
• The masking tactic with airs easier and helps us to get out of trouble, but it is convenient to face the problem with the advice that we gave you before to eliminate the root problem. We will be able to enjoy a few minutes in the bathroom again.
