American Standard M950218-0020A – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What is the American Standard M950218 vacuum breaker assembly used for?
It's the vacuum breaker assembly for an exposed back spud flushometer installation on a toilet. The vacuum breaker sits in the flush connection line and stops contaminated bowl water from being siphoned back into the potable supply if line pressure drops. American Standard builds it for the exposed back spud flush connection arrangement.
2) Will this vacuum breaker work on a top spud toilet?
No. This one is built for an exposed BACK spud flush connection, where the flushometer connects to the rear of the bowl. A top spud bowl takes a different vacuum breaker and tube assembly, so measure where your spud enters the fixture before ordering.
3) Is the chrome on this American Standard breaker assembly durable enough for a high-traffic restroom?
The chrome pieces are made to comply with ASQ5002 salt spray testing, which is the corrosion check that matters in humid, frequently cleaned public restrooms. That is the plating spec American Standard states for this assembly.
4) Can I replace just the vacuum breaker instead of the whole flushometer?
Yes. The M950218 is sold as a repair part, so a leaking or spitting vacuum breaker on an exposed back spud installation in the 606X.2X1 series can be swapped without pulling the flush valve or the bowl. That's the usual MRO fix when a breaker starts dribbling down the flush connection.
5) What finish does the M950218 vacuum breaker assembly come in?
Chrome only, ordered as part number M950218-0020A. That matters for facilities standardizing exposed flushometer trim, since the visible breaker will match chrome flush valves and supply stops rather than a brushed or matte finish.
