It might be me but that does not look like the proper alignment for the disposal to drain into the p-trap for the sink, it should be sloped towards the p-trap not towards the disposal. Should look like this.

 

stuff is pooling up and prob why it stinks. They also have foaming tablets you can get at big box stores. Works good also. See below

second this.

 

True

 

Yeah, I use the foaming tablets regularly but it's a very temporary fix for sure

 

I will look into that! Not sure if it's the angle of the picture mhy wife took or not, I never noticed that slope before.

 

Built a greenhouse with some Latino friends recently

 

Vinagar and baking soda also helps. Prob better than tablets imo
But def realign that piping

 

Thanks

 

Also check the closest pipe vent, view from roof looking down, make sure nothing in there.

 

First rule of plumbing:
Shit runs downhill

 

Second rule: don’t bite your finger nails

 

Shit! I thought that only applied to septic work.

 

That's actually the 3rd rule. There are just 3.

1. Hot's on the left.
2. Colds on the right.
3. Shit runs downhill.

 

You seen the nasty stuff come out of a sink p-trap

 

Oh lord, I just got flashbacks working on the shop sink at work. Hand washing, rinsing out food containers, etc...

And it looks like I'll have to do it again; seems like it's leaking again...

 

Explains why I can travel to shithole countries and never get the cramps.

 

I see what you did there

Does the smell come more from the sink or the dishwasher itself? Just like front load washing machines, some dishwashers get pretty smelly if the door isn't left ajar.

I'm getting a plan put together to expand the electrical circuits in my condo garage. As of now I've got a duplex outlet on the workbench, then single outlets for the washer/dryer, and then a duplex on the ceiling for the garage door motor. Being a DIY person means lots of extension cords to do anything in the garage that isn't on the workbench. So I want to install some surface mounted conduit (EMT) and put a couple of quad boxes along the head wall and 3 more along the long wall. I'll either split that off onto some panel lights or tap into the existing ceiling light. MS Paint on company time will give you an idea. Since drawing this I decided to install another quad box on the left side of the workbench. I'll be installing some tandem breakers since my tiny condo subpanel is already full. I'll also be installing a new 240v circuit for an EV charger recepticle between the workbench and washing machine. While doing recon on the panel I discovered an installed, but unused, breaker. Strange. Also discovered my son is already a Milwaukee fan

 

All on one breaker? If so, that's a lot. You better make absolutely sure you're not running too much at once.

 

You can put up to 10 receptacles on a 20 amp circuit.

Obviously if you’re running multiple tools, appliances, etc at a time you’ll overload them circuit.

 

Please tell me you're upgrading that panel...
