    Shower stopped not draining on new 3850RK

    Hello – I’ve been living in my new 3850RK for about 2 weeks now, and the shower suddenly stopped draining. The "drain" is a long, rectangular metal strip in the back of the shower, and it doesn't seem to want to flip up or out. I don’t see any paper instruction manual for it, or any articles...

    Shower drain pipe removal

    How do I get this piece off? Is there a certain tool required? My shower leaks so I've gone all the way back to this last piece for removal. I can get the piece to spin but not loosen. I figure once it's off I'll need some plumbers putty under the drain the shower to help keep it from leaking?

    4007 kitchen sink draining slowly

    Has anyone else have issues with the kitchen sink stop draining when it hits about 2/3 full? I think I have found the issue. It's not vented correctly.

    2013 378xl, my bathroom vanity bowl sink suddenly stopped draining. Does this have a pop-up stopper or something that might be closed? I've tried pulling, pushing and twisting with no luck. I don't think its a vent because the water sits in the bowl forever, no gurgling. Had been working...
