    Hi sorry for digging out a old thread again..

    I've almost similar problem in my m/bedroom toilet.

    Probably coming from the floor trap, but I've place a filter there (the ball float kind) and sometimes still smell.

    And we've done the floor trap cleaning, meaning open it and try to clear and flush water down..become better but still have smell.

    Can I check whether is the sewage cleaning tablets useful ?

    u can try that... i also tried all methods.... sometimes still can smell it but bearable..

    maybe u can try buy this charcoal liquid thing from ntuc...one bottle is abt $6 plus..it works well for me

    3. aircon on a few hours every nite n not the whole nite. Not with the intention to save electricity but i scare of cold. haha

    i live in 5 rm executive.

    so far my bill is $50 plus.

    think pretty low seeing the bills of the forumers here, i was surprised too.

    cook abt 3 to 4 times a week.

    wash clothes abt 2 times a week, follow by Dryer, cos i dun dare to hang my clothes out.

    aircon on every night but shut off after a few hours or when room gets cold.

    I use water alot cos i mop my floor every day as i had a dog, cant stand my floor dirty.

    Vacuum abt every alternate days.

    Dunno whether is it becos the electrical appliances i bought mostly are energy saving.

    Like my fridge that i bought thou is big but it got 4 ticks on energy consumption.

    Think aircon also.

    i think after giving birth, women will tend to age faster. Of cos still depends on individual..

    got a fren who used to have beautiful skin, during the pregnancy period, maybe due to hormone change, started to develop pigmentation on the face. but well... sacrifice for a beautiful baby is worth it.

    Most importantly is to maintain a youthful and beautiful heart. when you have the inner beauty it will shine on your face!

    Stay happy and don worry too much.

    Also must exercise regularly. You see those athletics or sportsman, they look younger than their age.

    we cant defy aging but we can age gracefully. :dancingqueen:

    hahahahaha...cant help laughing at some of the postings... entertaining. :dancingqueen:

    anyway, abt the topic, i also bought one skinny jeans. After YEARS of not wearing jeans at all.

    Din buy a very expensive one cos scare i will throw aside after wearing once.

    It looks good.. according to my colleagues lar..

    but i feel it is really hot..maybe already used to wearing skirt.

    think only when the weather is cold then i will wear again..hehe :thumbs up:

    Hi all!

    just realised my neighbour attached a display for house unit number to the wall beside his door. Is like an arrow pointing towards my door. Hope u get what i mean. Although it is not pointing to the center of my door, is pointing towards the side panel of my main door. is this ok?

    Heard from feng shui point of view, is not good to have any object pointing towards your main door. The head of the that display is round and not sharp, is that alright?

    someone suggest me to put a 'pa kwa' outside my door... hmm..a bit weird i find cos both myself n my hubby are not religious pple. tot that is for taoist?

    Any suggestion?

    Hi all,

    the HDB officer came down to inspect. However he cant find any fault too. No leakage discovered. He only advise me to open the window for ventilation and buy the.. hmm.. i dunno wat it is called.. the one you place at the toilet bowl to kill germs and remove odour.. think can buy from NTUC.

    i know very well the smell came from the plug hole, as i had placed a tile over it. And for the past few days, there is no sewage smell at all. Also i bought this charcoal liquid (bought from giant) that can help in absorb odour. so far so good. cross my fingers.

    The HDB officer said thou he cant discovered any fault, he will take note of it, as the smell could be from the unit below mine (they are renovating now).

    go daiso buy those sewage cleaning tablets, follow instructions.

    the foul smell should be coming the curvy part of the pipe - flush it with lots of water might be able to push those dirty water over the curve.

    properly can buy the thing you said for double effect. :dancingqueen:

    Is the water level in the bowl ok?

    Ensure that it is fully covering the hole, else the smell could also be coming from there.

    Some times, when the higher floors flush, the water flows down so fast, it actually creates some sort of suction that sucks some of the water from your bowl. I hope you know what I mean.

    Just ensure that the water level in the bowl fully covers the hole... no gap between water surface and hole and the smell will not be coming out liow :D

    Hi!

    the water level is normal.

    I had called up HDB, the officer is nice enough to offer to come down to my house to inspect.

    Hopefully he will know what is wrong and do the necessary.

    If no pipe leakage... the smell can only come from the plug hole (drain basket).

    There is a U bend pipe in all plug hole. So that they collect water and prevent smelly

    air from entering the room. Open up the plug hole and check inside.

    plug hole... hmm.. where is it located...hee

    Hi! anyone has this experience?

    Our MBR toilet has this strong sewage smell.

    My hubby has checked out all the pipes to see if there is any leakage but there is none.

    Is very disturbing and we have to close the toilet at all times, else the whole MBR will have this smell.

    I bought a special charcoal liquid and place it in the toilet to absorb the smell. It works for a while.

    I find the sewage smell is especially strong whenever those staying in the higher level flush the toilet.

    Anyone know what can be the problem?

    i think it really depends on the officer who assist u. Mine is also a WIS, 5 yrs vacant. when we got the flat, also alot of defects. But the officer really nice, help us change alot of the things. While renovating, we realised there are still quite a number of things need to rectify, we just call him without even need to go to HDB, and he jus arranged and asked the contractors to do up for us.
