Field ServiceDiagnostics & Troubleshooting3MediumPlumber$ implied

Plumber cannot diagnose inconsistent water flow issues in one bathroom after installing a water softener, and customer's other plumber contradicts his diagnosis, causing confusion and delays.

No dedicated tool for remote diagnostics or step-by-step troubleshooting based on system schematics, leading to guesswork and conflicting advice.
