Venting into sewer line...

[krakatoa]

The stack in the roof is your sewer vent. If you blow forced air into a sewer drain in your crawlspace with a closed septic tank at the end of the pipe it's going to head up to the roof because it has nowhere else to go.

Thanx for the response. I'm in a rural area so each house has it's own septic system. I guess I'm worried that when someone flushes the toilet that the line would be now full of sewage and I wouldn't think the odor would be able
to enter, therefore, where could it go, other then back to the room?

i do not know if anyone sayed this, but i do not think it will because if you flush the toilet at your house, the smell of the shit does not come so why should the mj.

Don't you think that the smell of the sewers will more than cover the smell of some plants?

is there a possibility of sewage backing up into your grow room and covering you plants with your crap? would it be good fert?

odor control...is not your problem....it would work for that...but venting into your sewage pipe...is a terrible idea...you will be getting bacteria into your room..not to mention a sewage back up...or flood...you would be better off going negative pressure through a organic filter.....just the gasses in the pipe building up in your space could be terrible...there is no way this would work corecctly...just go under negative pressure with filter...or use your dryer vent... ecoli sux ass..

Tis' covered on Overgrow FAQ



How can I vent through the sewer?

[FireyBudBurner]

sounds like a SHIT-ty problem

[TheGreenFog]

Well, according to the OvergrowFAQ, it is possible. A little complicated, but possible...and if it works like it's supposed to, it might be very effective and stealth...

IMO, I would not risk it. Too many things can go wrong. I agree with The Yeag. I would spend your energy (and $) trying to develop a good neg-pressure system with a nice carbon scrubber.

G'luck.

I'm sure i'm a lot late in responding to this post but here's what is meant by venting into a sewer line.the title of that is deceptive,because it is what is done when you vent your room through a plumbing sewer vent line.it simply exhausts the air in your "attic room" without having to cut another hole in the roof.
