American Standard 7018801.243 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the American Standard Edgemere widespread faucet fit a sink drilled for 8-inch centers?
Yes. The Edgemere 7018801 is an 8-inch widespread 2-handle faucet, so it mounts in a three-hole deck with the hot and cold valves on 8-inch centers and the spout in the middle. Widespread trim is sold as three separate pieces linked by supply tubing, so it will not go into a single-hole deck or a 4-inch centerset prep without an escutcheon plate change.
2) Does the Edgemere 7018801 bathroom faucet come with a drain, or do I order one separately?
A drain is included. It uses American Standard's SpeedConnect drain, which links the pop-up lift rod to the drain with a 20-inch flexible stainless steel cable instead of the usual rod-and-clevis linkage. That means no linkage alignment under the bowl, and no separate drain assembly to buy.
3) What supply connections does the Edgemere widespread faucet use, and do I need extra risers?
It ships with 24-inch stainless steel braided flexible supply hoses ending in 3/8-inch compression connections, so it lands straight on standard 3/8 compression angle stops. The 24-inch length usually reaches a typical lavatory stop without adding extensions; on a deep console or a floor-stop rough-in you may still need longer risers.
4) Is this American Standard Edgemere faucet ADA compliant for a commercial restroom?
Yes. The Edgemere 7018801 is ADA compliant, and it uses lever handles, which is the handle style that satisfies operation without tight grasping, pinching, or wrist twisting. That makes it usable in office, hospitality, and multi-family restrooms where accessible fixtures are specified.
5) Does the Edgemere 1.2 gpm faucet meet low-flow requirements for LEED or state water codes?
The flow rate is 1.2 gallons per minute (4.5 liters per minute) maximum, and the faucet meets EPA WaterSense criteria. That 1.2 gpm figure is below the 1.5 gpm ceiling commonly written into green building and state efficiency specs for public lavatories, which is why it is a common pick for retrofit water-savings programs.
6) What finishes does the Edgemere 8-inch widespread faucet come in, and what are the part numbers?
Three finishes: chrome (7018801.002), brushed nickel (7018801.295), and matte black (7018801.243). If you are standardizing across a building, order by the full suffixed number so the trim matches unit to unit.
7) Should I use a widespread faucet or a centerset for a lavatory replacement?
Go widespread only if the existing deck is drilled on 8-inch centers, which is what the Edgemere 7018801 is built for. A 4-inch centerset mounts as one piece on a single plate and is the faster swap on older or smaller lavatories. Widespread trim spreads the valves apart on a larger bowl and gives more room to work a lever handle, but it puts three separate holes to seal instead of one.
8) Is the Edgemere faucet metal or plastic under the trim?
All metal construction. For rental turns and high-traffic public restrooms that matters more than the finish does, since the usual failure points on budget faucets are plastic shanks and plastic handle bases.
