American Standard M950217-0020A – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will this American Standard vacuum breaker assembly fit my flushometer toilet?
The M950217 vacuum breaker assembly is built for American Standard 606X.2X2 series flushometers with a concealed back spud flush connection. If the fixture on your wall is a back spud bowl fed by a 606X.2X2 valve, this is the matching breaker assembly. It is not the part for a top spud bowl or for another manufacturer's valve.
2) What does the vacuum breaker do on a flushometer, and why replace it?
It is the backflow protection in the flush connection, stopping bowl water from being siphoned back into the supply when line pressure drops. When a breaker fails you typically see it spitting or weeping at the flush connection during the flush cycle, or it fails to seal. Replacing the breaker assembly restores that protection without touching the flushometer valve body itself.
3) I manage several buildings with American Standard back spud toilets. Can I stock one breaker part number for all of them?
Only where the flushometers are the 606X.2X2 series with concealed back spud connections. Those openings all take M950217-0020A, so one chrome part number covers that fleet. Openings running top spud bowls or a different American Standard valve series use a different breaker, so walk the building and record the valve series before you buy in bulk.
4) Is the M950217 breaker assembly chrome, and is the finish suitable for a wet public restroom?
Chrome is the only finish offered on the M950217, and the chrome pieces comply with ASQ5002 salt spray testing. That corrosion testing matters on a concealed back spud installation in a high-traffic or humid washroom where the flush connection stays damp.
