Default Tub drains slow

I do not seem to be able to remove the stopper. It turns freely when up and

have no grip when down.

Is there a common trick to remove the stopper?

Is it standard practice to go in from the overflow column?

I do not see a cleanout access anywhere close to the tub.


Thanks

Mauro Gaetano

There are at least 3 different styles of pop up stoppers out there. Some
have a lever that requires that you take out the 2 screw in the overflow and
remove the lifter before you take out the stopper.



Give us a clue or a brand name and someone can give you the right answer.
