American Standard 7381549-201.0070A – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What exactly is the American Standard 7381549-201 float with seal, and what does it do in the toilet?
It's the float and seal assembly that sits inside the flush valve body of an American Standard Activate toilet. The float with seal is the sealing element that holds tank water back and releases it on flush, so a tank that runs constantly or won't hold water is the usual reason to replace it. It pulls out of the flush valve body as a unit once the valve body is lifted off the tank. Order by MPN 7381549-201.0070A.
2) Does replacing the flush valve float on an Activate toilet mean draining the tank and disconnecting the battery?
Yes, both. Shut the supply off and flush to empty the tank, pull the tank cover, then open the battery compartment and disconnect the battery cable from the terminal before you touch anything else. The Activate is a battery powered flush system, so the power has to come off before the hose and actuator are disturbed.
3) Will this float and seal fit any American Standard toilet, or only the Activate models?
It's the Activate flush valve float with seal, and the removal steps describe an Activate tank: battery compartment, actuator hose with a locking collar, and a flush valve body with side tabs. A standard gravity flush American Standard tank with a trip lever and flapper uses a different part entirely, so match the Activate system before ordering 7381549-201.0070A.
4) How do I get the flush valve body out to reach the float and seal?
Twist the locking collar off the hose assembly and pull the hose off the end of the actuator. Then unclip the refill tube from the flush valve body, grab the tabs on each side of the body and pull straight up. The float with seal then comes off the valve. No tools are called out for any of those steps.
5) Is the O-ring included with the American Standard Activate float and seal kit?
The part is sold as the float with seal. The O-ring on the barb at the end of the actuator is a separate piece already in your tank, and American Standard's own removal procedure tells you to make sure that O-ring is reinstalled on the barb when you put the hose back. Check it while you have the hose off, because a nicked O-ring there will leak even with a new float installed.
6) I manage a building with several American Standard Activate toilets. Is this a stock item worth keeping on the shelf?
It's the wear part in that system. The float with seal is what seals the flush valve, and seals harden and fail with cycles while the valve body, actuator and hose usually don't. For a fleet of Activate toilets it's a sensible spare to stock, and the swap is done from inside the tank with the supply off, no removing the toilet.
