We have a problem with a drain smell in our cloakroom, which is
fitted with a shower. I realise that it is possible to fit a
non-return valve to the outflow, but access would be very difficult.
I'm guessing that shower doesn't get used much and the trap has dried
out. Just run it occasionally to make sure the trap is full.
The traps for showers tend to smell after a while as they become clogged
with hair. Usually the trap can be removed by lifting the cover and
twisting it out, then clean it.
