6. Water does not drain properly.

Check your drain system for debris.
Check the main waste line of your

7. Water leak between joints or

fittings.

Tighten loose connections. If leak
persists, the application of hot water
will sometimes reseat improperly
applied joint compound. After 30
minutes wait and retest, a persistent
leak will necessitate reassembly and
additional sealant.
