American Standard Cadet 3 FloWise Skirted Two-Piece 1.28 gpf/4.8 Lpf Chair Height Round Front Toilet With Seat - AMS-2988101

The rim sits at 16-1/2 inches (419 mm), which is the chair-height range used for accessible applications. With a seat on top, the seated height lands in the comfort-height band people expect in ADA-oriented restrooms and senior housing. Add the seat thickness when you are checking a specific height target.

No. The Cadet 3 FloWise skirted combo ships as bowl, tank and a top-mount slow-close seat and cover with a lift-off feature, plus two color-matched bolt hole covers and a chrome plated trip lever. What you supply on site is the wax ring or seal, closet bolts and the supply line.

1.28 gpf (4.8 Lpf), which is 20 percent less than a 1.6 gpf fixture and meets EPA WaterSense criteria. That matters if you are specifying for a water-conservation rebate or a green building requirement, since WaterSense is the criterion most municipal programs reference.

Round front is the shorter bowl, and it is the usual pick when floor space in front of the fixture is tight, such as a small apartment bath or a powder room where the door swing crowds the fixture. Elongated adds roughly two inches of bowl length and is more common in commercial and accessible stalls. The Cadet 3 FloWise here is the round front version at chair height, so you get the taller seating position without the extra projection.

The flush package is built around a 2-1/8 inch (54 mm) fully glazed trapway with a siphon action jetted bowl and a 3 inch (76 mm) flush valve, so the tank dumps fast and the glazed passage resists hangups. The PowerWash rim scrubs the bowl on every flush. For high-traffic multi-family or hospitality use, that large valve and glazed trapway are the specs to point at.

The skirted base and smooth-sided concealed trapway remove the contours where dust and grime collect behind a standard two-piece, so a janitorial crew can wipe the base in one pass. The bowl surface is EverClean antimicrobial, which inhibits growth of odor and stain causing bacteria on the glaze. Skirted bowls mount differently from a conventional bowl, so follow American Standard's mounting instructions rather than setting it straight on standard closet bolts.

White only, ordered as part number 2988101.02. If you are standardizing a building on one fixture color, white is the finish this combo is offered in.

9 by 8 inches (229 x 203 mm) of water surface. A wider water spot keeps more of the bowl wet, which is what keeps staining and skid marks down in units that do not get cleaned daily, a real consideration for property managers running a fleet of apartments.
