Radiator Hose Home Repair

http://www.assuretyinspections.com In this video we are looking at a recent Houston home inspection on an older house. While performing the home inspection I was wondering why the kitchen smelled like an open sewer drain.
While inspecting the kitchen sink drain lines, I noticed that the home owner used automobile radiator hoses as drain lines for the sink. Automotive grade hoses are far more durable than standard PVC drain pipe; however, the drain line did not have a proper trap so sewer gases were flowing into the kitchen, kind of like cooking in a port-a potty. Hope your Houston home inspector, performing your Houston home inspection finds this one before its too late.
