Hello,
Last year I installed a new Kohler bathtub, along with all new Kohler hardware.
The drain gets clogged with hair every two-three months.
When I take the trap apart, I see the spring that contacts the drain lever is covered with hair, etc. This spring pushes down on the lever and holds the drain open.Once I clean it out it is fine again for a few more months.
The spring at rest lays right in the path of the drain water and catches all the junk.
Is this normal and expected? Is there a different design drain that I should change to ? The screw-in type seems to be a good solution, but I wouldn't think there should be a design concept idea that would be so flawed.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Thanks
