What Happens When My P Trap Won't Go On?

What happens here

After installation, turn on the water at the sink and check all connections for any leaks. Tighten any leaking connections slightly if necessary. The presenter notes that 1.5-inch P-traps are often preferred over 1.25-inch ones due to better flow and less clogging, and they can always be reduced down to fit smaller tailpieces. He also discusses that while 1.25-inch P-traps might be used in very tight spaces, the 1.5-inch option often works well with universal kits and reducer washers. The video concludes by inviting viewers to share their experiences with similar fitting issues, suggesting it might be an off-brand or specific manufacturing problem.

Goal: Perform a final check for leaks and consider the benefits of using 1.5-inch P-traps, especially with universal kits.
