Dear Don,Thank you for your contribution. If Hals plumbing is properly ventilated, he would not have severe odors problems, as he describes, especially since Hal initially found and plugged the original point where the gases were escaping from (please refer to Hals posting).A possibility is that even if he has a well ventilated system (sorry to point this out, but Hal has not mentioned anything about the status of ventilation for his plumbing – good or bad), there could a be a leak somewhere else. Or maybe his ventilaton system is impaired? Or perhaps, it is as you suggested in your posting, Don.Regardless of these possibilities, the main focus of using Bacteria Concepts products is to target the source of the problem – the fact that the bad odors can be greatly reduced or eliminated by treating the source of the problem which may be from either organic build-ups in the pipes or from the sewer system/septic tank itself.With either or perhaps a combination of ideas/suggestions gained from the postings on this Bulletin Board, we do hope that Hal has/will manage to solve the problem he is facing.Best regards,Customer ServiceBacteria Concepts, Inc. 1400 Brook Drive Downers Grove, IL 60515-1025 U.S.A.
