There is a less possibility that the leakage is due to sewage in your vent system. However the biggest reason for this would be improper roof installation. Similarly it can also be the condensation problem from the ducts themselves. You can call the general plumbing service provider to get it solved.In New Jersey call for A-General Plumbing services for help.

Do you have a leak if your shower floor tile is hot?

Possibly, but the supply lines should be in the wall. Even on a slab house, the water should come into the house at the water heater and then be in the walls. Possible heat vent leak? I'm assuming a slab house because if there was access underneath, you would be able to tell if there was a leak.

Why do you get a heavy exhaust odor and film on windows when you turn on the heat in your '93 S10 pickup?

There is a very small leak in the heater core that is collecting in the vent system and is evaporating out when you turn the heater on. The smell is from the antifreeze in the water.


How do you get air out of hot water system?

Any propperly installed hot water heating system will have a high point vent. This consists of some sort of valve at the highest elevation of the entire system. Since air is lighter than water air will collect at the vent point. When the system is under pressure partially open this vent to allow air to escape. When water comes out the vent close it. This may have to be repeated several times to get all of the air out of the system.Open the hot water tap on the sink farthest from the water heater. Be sure the supply valve on the water heater is fully open.

How do you fix a second floor bathroom leak coming from the bathtub water valve when turned on when water is dripping through the fan vent to the bathroom below creating a wet spot on the floor?

Fixing a leak You should first check fan vent outlet on roof - should have a flapper of some kind that may be stuck open or have a hole in it. If it only leaks when it is raining that is first clue. One other possibility is the vent pipe is running through cold attic causing condensation - you can wrap vent pipe with insulation to solve that one . Shorten distance of fan vent, too much condensation to evaporate before running back to fan.More input from FAQ Farmers:It isn't possible to fix a leak unless you know where the leak is coming from. It could be from the bath, basin, radiator, toilet. We need more information.Fix the bathtub water valve first, since you know it is broken. If you have a plumber do this, he may be able to diagnose what is happening with the fan. Recently, we found that the condensation pipe was plugged, and we got a leak--the water always finds a path.

If the roof ridge comes loose will the roof leak?

It certainly could. Or worse, the leak might not show up inside, but water leaking in might cause the structural framing to rot. It would be best to get it fixed. Note, that some ridges are "vented", so the cap above the vent might be the part that is loose.
