Really in need of some advice here. For our kitchen remodel the contractors installed all new plumbing including a new drain pipe to the waste stack. Today as they were hooking up the sink drains, disposal, etc... I noticed the drain was higher than it should be.
I'm thinking this is an issue as water will pool in the pipes and not completely drain. Assuming this is a problem how can I remedy? Going into the walls again to redo the drain is not an option. However, I have a very accessible crawlspace under the kitchen. So, is an option to add a T after the trap. The current drain would stay connected and act as the vent. The other opening of the T would go straight down into my crawlspace and tap into the same sewer line just at a lower position.
Any help would be very appreciated.
