If standing water refuses to go down your bathtub drain, you must manually remove the obstruction or bail the water out. First, use a bucket and cup to scoop out the standing water, then use a cup plunger placed firmly over the drain opening to create a tight seal and forcefully plunge up and down several times to dislodge the hair clog. If plunging fails, feed a hand-cranked drain snake through the overflow plate opening. Verification: Test drainage speed by running the tap once the standing water has completely cleared.
