What is a stink pipe?
Every building has a "stink pipe." Usually located on the roof these pipes vent air to allow the plumbing drains inside the building to work correctly. As water flows into a plumbing drain pipe, air is vented out of the drain through the "stink pipe." The pipe that goes from the bottom of the back of your toilet, up the side of your house to let any gases produced by the waste escape into the air instead of bubbling back up through your toilet and sticking up your house.

Would it be a problem to vent the toilet powder room into the ceiling?
It is not good practice, and is illegal in some areas, to vent interior spaces into the roof space. This is for several reasons: * inside air being vented is usually quite damp, from breathing, washing, cooking etc. and will add moisture to the roof space, increasing the chance of rot occurring. * odours vented into the roof space may not disperse and may find their way back into the building.
