We have an ejector pit in the basement. Tenants complain that it sometimes smell very bad to the point that she's scared to put clothing in closet adjacent to it.
Anyone else has that problem?
What could be the issue?
Do you know of a product that could get rid of the smell?
Pump functions fine, pit was cleaned a few weeks ago.
Smell comes and goes.
P.s: we've had tenants there for over ten years. Nobody complained of that problem in the past. (But it's our fist time renting to newly weds without babies in diapers!! )

Maybe it isn’t being flushed often enough so isn’t emptying as often?

It's being used a lot. Ejector pit is for the whole house and I have a large family. For sure this is not the issue.
Anyone else had that problem?

The smell points to a problem. It can be tree roots growing into the system. A professional can address this.
As an aside, until you figure this out check to see of it's happening when washing machine is being used. Hot water being used seems to make less of an issue and cold brings out the smell when in use.
