Troubleshooting
Leaking from the seal under the sink
Ensure the locking nut is sufficiently tightened. Check that the rubber seal is correctly seated and not damaged. For persistent leaks, consider using a plumber's putty or silicone sealant around the underside of the flange (ensure compatibility with materials).
Slow drainage
Remove the strainer basket and clean out any accumulated food debris. Check the waste pipe for any blockages.
Overflow not functioning correctly
Verify that the overflow connection is properly attached to the strainer body and that there are no blockages within the overflow channel.
