Just had our house refurbished and got a traditional P trap under the sink.
This runs into the waste, which eventually terminates in the soil pipe.
Generally pretty ok, but over the last weekend we've been getting the full works of sewer smells through the kitchen sink.
First thought is that the P trap is a poor quality one and isn't forming a seal well, but before I change it for a McAlpine one wanted to make sure there is nothing else I should be aware of. I've run water down it, and there isn't a siphon effect occurring so that's not the issue.
Thanks in advance!
