Why do I sometimes get the smell of Sewer from My Bathtub Drains?

The Tubs and drains are New, yet the smell was there before and after . This only happens occasionally.

Any Plumbers out there?

    Either you don't have enough vent, or the vents you have are plugged. Check to see if wasps have them plugged. You could snake the vents to be sure they are open.
