PlumbingDiagnostics & Troubleshooting3MediumHomeowner
A homeowner has a clogged shower and toilet in a new construction home and needs to determine if the blockage is in the sewer line downstream of the cleanout.
No software solution mentioned; the homeowner appears to be asking for manual diagnostic steps (checking cleanout for fluid) which suggests a gap in accessible, step-by-step troubleshooting guidance for non-professionals.
