Sinks backing up, draining slow.
Remodel on the kitchen, double sink drained fine before with a regular single trap setup. It never had a dishwasher before. Dishwasher is not installed yet. So I bought the dishwasher drain kit, Above the 3/4" barb on the tailpiece there's a divert-er. I'm assuming to keep water from splashing up when the dishwasher drains. My problem is under heavy drain or faucet running it will fill up to the divert-er, then cause the opposite side of the sink to start filling, Then it takes forever to drain it. This is a dedicated 2" line from the basement to the roof, sink is directly hooked into the vertical run.
Are there any other options to try here? The drain is too high on the wall to use a regular dishwasher tail off the strainer. Can the diverter be modified so it can handle more water? Any tips or advice will be appreciated. Here is what I have.
