Default Sewer gas in the living room

Clogged stack vent comes to mind. Also, the inactive side of the sink
doesn't get the drain trap filled as often as it should.

I wonder why the smell is most intense in the living room, 20 feet away from
the kitchen? Hmm. You know, I did drain the 90 percenter furnace into the
drain line. But, I think the sewer smell predates the furnace replacement.

Check your system venting. Also, all traps should be filled with water
to work.
