PlumbingDrainage & Flood Prevention4HighHomeowner / Resident$ implied
After a double-bowl kitchen sink replacement, the P-trap is positioned lower than the wall drain, causing chronic slow drainage and dishwasher backup due to water flowing uphill.
Existing solutions (snaking, disassembly) assume a clog but fail when the root cause is incorrect pipe geometry; no tool exists to diagnose or correct elevation mismatches between sink bowl and drain pipe.
