Here are some of the issues that can cause a smelly drain.
Food – if you have food trapped in your kitchen sink pipes, perhaps it has got lodged against another blockage or has joined together with a fatberg, you can be sure that is going to cause an unpleasant smell to be emitted from your plughole. The best way to avoid this is to use a drain guard that will prevent any food items from being forced down your plughole with the water in the sink.
Blockage – a blockage of any kind in your drain, even if not caused by food can cause a smell. This often due to the stagnant water that builds up in front of the blockage and the smell will get worse with an increase in water that is left behind.
