American Standard Madera 1.1 – 1.6 gpf (4.2 – 6.0 Lpf) Chair Height Top Spud Elongated Bowl Made-in-Mexico - AMS-3043001USMCA

Bowl only. The Madera 3043 is a top spud bowl, which means the flushometer mounts to the spud on top of the bowl and has to be ordered separately along with its vacuum breaker and supply. There is no tank and no tank hardware in the box. Spec the flushometer to match the bowl's 1.1 to 1.6 gpf (4.2 to 6.0 Lpf) range so the valve and the bowl are rated the same.

Chair height puts the rim higher than a standard bowl so users sit down and stand up with less drop. The Madera 3043 measures 18.875 inches high overall, which is the taller of the two rim heights American Standard builds this bowl in. If you are replacing a standard-height Madera in a retrofit, the seat will sit noticeably higher, so confirm which one is on the wall before ordering.

Either works. The bowl is rated across a 1.1 to 1.6 gpf (4.2 to 6.0 Lpf) band, so it will clear on a 1.6 gallon valve, a 1.28, or a 1.1. That range is what makes it useful for a facility standardizing fixtures: you can keep the same bowl and change only the flushometer when a water-conservation retrofit comes through. Match the valve to whatever flush rate your local code or your spec calls for.

Commercial. The Madera line is American Standard's institutional vitreous china bowl, built for flushometer service in schools, offices, healthcare, and similar traffic, and this one is classed as commercial rather than luxury residential. It is not a drop-in replacement for a home two-piece toilet, because a residential bathroom almost never has the flushometer supply a top spud bowl requires.

Elongated, like the Madera 3043, gives a longer seating surface and is what most commercial and institutional specs call for, particularly in accessible stalls. Round front is the one to choose when the stall is short and the 29.5 inch projection of an elongated bowl would crowd the door swing or the clear floor space in front of the fixture. Measure from the wall to the obstruction first, then pick.

White is the finish it is built in, ordered as MPN 3043001USMCA.020. The .020 suffix is American Standard's white china code. Give that number to your supplier along with the flushometer you are pairing it with, since the bowl ships without a valve.
