American Standard Cadet PRO Two-Piece 1.28 gpf/4.8 Lpf Tall Height Elongated Right-Hand Trip Lever Toilet Less Seat - AMS-215TA105

No seat is included. The 215TA105 ships as a two-piece bowl and tank only, so you need to order an elongated seat separately. Get an elongated seat, not a round front, or it will not match the bowl. For a property manager buying a run of these, that is one extra line item per unit and it lets you spec the seat grade you actually want rather than the one that comes in the carton.

The trapway is 2-1/8 inches, which is the wide-trapway configuration American Standard uses on the PRO line and the reason plumbers put them in rental and multi-family work. Paired with the 3 inch flush valve, the tank dumps fast enough to carry a load through that passage. It is not a pressure-assist unit, so if you are fighting a chronic drain-line problem the trapway is not going to fix the pipe, but for ordinary high-turnover residential use this is the configuration built for it.

1.28 gpf, or 4.8 litres per flush, and it is WaterSense certified. That is the number to quote on a green building or utility rebate submission, and it satisfies jurisdictions that have moved off the older 1.6 gpf allowance. It gets that volume to work with a 3 inch flush valve and a PowerWash rim that sprays the bowl on every flush, so the reduced volume is not coming out of bowl cleaning.

Right-hand, in chrome. That matters more than people expect in a tight bathroom or a bank of stalls, because a left-hand tank puts the lever against a side wall or vanity where a user cannot reach it comfortably. The trip lever itself is metal rather than plastic, along with the metal shank fill valve, which is the difference that holds up in a rental or high-turnover unit where a plastic lever snaps within a couple of years.

American Standard classes the Cadet PRO 215TA105 as a residential fixture. It gets specified constantly in multi-family, apartment turns, and light hospitality work, and the metal trip lever and metal shank fill valve are why. If you are outfitting a public restroom with genuine institutional traffic, a flushometer-style bowl with a wall-mounted valve is the right call instead of a tank type.

Two-piece, like the Cadet PRO 215TA105, means the tank and bowl ship and set separately. For a property manager that is the practical choice: one person can carry each half up a stairwell, and if a tank cracks you replace the tank instead of the whole fixture. One-piece units have no tank-to-bowl seam to leak or clean around and set faster, but they are heavy and a single crack scraps the fixture. On apartment turns and multi-unit standardization, two-piece usually wins on parts and handling.

EverClean is a glaze treatment fired into the vitreous china that inhibits the growth of bacteria, mold and mildew on the surface. It slows down staining and the ring that forms at the water line, which cuts how often a housekeeping crew has to scrub. It is not a sanitizer and it does not clean the bowl for you, so keep the same cleaning schedule. The china body itself is standard vitreous china, so normal non-abrasive bathroom cleaners are fine on it.

White only, catalogued by American Standard as 215TA105.020. If you are matching a lavatory or a bank of existing fixtures in a building, white is the safe standardization choice and it is the only one this model is built in. The chrome trip lever is the visible metal, so it will read against brushed or matte black bathroom trim if that is the finish package on the job.
