Exhausting into sewage pipe?

LOL
i dont think you could pressurise a public sewer as there needs to be plenty of vents to prevent the build up of gas
sewerage would instantly over power the smell of ganja

i cant see a problem i thought of this idea myself a while ago but my pipe is to far from the grow, even with a big fan by the time the air got to the vent there wouldnt be alot of air flow if its a longish run another good thing is the air that your pushing will also be pulling sewer gases as well
vents tend to be in places where you wouldnt smell the gases who wants to smell sewer gas
go for it

Maybe it is just me. But I think I have read about this a lot. I thought this was common. In any event, lol, pun, it certainly feels good to me. Nice, clean, I am having truble getting out other puns. I need some exlax.

This ex of mine just called and told me she found a miracle weightloss cure. Lots of exlax, and then yu poop, and it is a blondes dream!

the traps in your piping that are there to keep methane from coming up the sewer into your house work the same way backwards, even if you can get by those it still may not be a good idea, you cant feed air pressure into a drain, if your house is near others ect.. the smell might get out, not ever house has PROPER vents, your vent may be in the atic and moisture up there is never a good thing. take it from a plumber.. its to much of a headach and to many potential problems. a filter can be bought for under 100 bucks.


that and since its in your basement if you ever get a plug youll have nice fresh water with brown hunks in it coming out your fan.. na such a good thing imo.

good luck!!!

For a start off sewer gases are never vented into a loft space, for the same reason they vent them out of the sewer,
methane gas explosion's
he has already stated the toilet can be removed so acsess is not a problem
as said before sewer gases are never vented where there easily smealt
