6. Solución de problemas
| Problema | Posible causa | Solución |
|---|---|---|
| Drain remains slow after treatment | Severe or deep-seated clog; non-organic blockage (e.g., foreign object); insufficient product amount or contact time. | Repeat treatment with recommended dosage and contact time. If problem persists, a mechanical method (e.g., snaking) or professional plumbing service may be required. Ensure the blockage is organic. |
