What’s that smell?

Categories: Odor

I live in a brownstone that was duplexed into the basement back in 2000. There is a door to the boiler room at the front end of our renovated hallway that leads to the back rooms off of the garden. When I can home yesterday I experienced a faint smell of urine coming from the front area in the boiler room (gross!). Does anyone out there know what could possibly cause this odor? We have had sewer issues in the past but this is a completely different smell.

I have of course called our maintenance professional to check it out and see if we need professional plumbing assistance, but I thought I would ask all of you out there in brownstone land if you ever encountered this before. Many thank!
