I recently purchased a property , built in 1977 and every time its windy outside it smell like sewer inside. How can I fix this ? I found in an article that it could be because of a septic tank nearby?

Maybe there's an empty siphon somewhere from a drain you don't use often? Try putting some water in all of your drains.

I spend $200 bucks on a plumber for 20mins and he said everything is fine. The issue is sometimes it smells and sometimes it doesn't.
