Trace where test vapor escapes

Smoke & sewer-odor testing

Visible test vapor can reveal openings that may allow sewer odors to escape.

Expected roof-vent discharge differs from an unintended opening. Test vapor does not repair a leak. An on-site assessment determines the right method for your property.

A closer look at a smoke test

A small wisp can point us toward the problem.

Look just behind the toilet, near the rear of the base and the tiled wall. The faint haze is easier to see in this enhanced image.

Our team uses the test findings and an on-site inspection to investigate the source of sewer odors and explain the repair options. The photo alone does not confirm which part needs repair.
