How To Remove And Replace Old Kitchen Sink Drain Pipe And Save Money!

What happens here

After ensuring all connections are snug, remove any remaining plumber's putty from the top of the sink. Fill both sinks with water and then drain them simultaneously. Carefully inspect all connections under the sink for any signs of leaks. If any leaks are found, further tighten the corresponding slip nuts or clamps until the leak stops. Confirm that water drains freely and without issues.

Goal: The final step involves testing the newly installed drain system for any leaks and confirming proper function.
