American Standard 1340227.002 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the American Standard 1340227 metering faucet fit a standard 4-inch centerset sink?
Yes. The 1340227 is built for 4-inch centerset installations, meaning a three-hole deck with the outer holes 4 inches apart on center. It will not mount on an 8-inch widespread deck or a single-hole sink without an adapter deck plate.
2) How much water does this American Standard metering faucet use per push?
It is factory set to a maximum of 0.09 gallon per activation, with a 0.5 gpm / 1.9 Lpf pressure-compensating multi-laminar spray. The handles are self-closing, so the water shuts off automatically after each cycle instead of being left running.
3) Is a metering faucet the right choice for a public restroom, or should I use a sensor faucet?
A metering faucet like the 1340227 is push-and-release: the user presses the handle, water runs for a fixed metered cycle, then shuts off on its own. That stops water and energy waste without any power supply, batteries, or sensor electronics to maintain, which is why it is a common pick for school, stadium, and commercial restrooms. Go electronic only if you need fully hands-free operation.
4) Will this metering faucet hold up in a high-abuse restroom?
The body is vandal-resistant cast brass, and the aerator is a VR (vandal-resistant) spray outlet, so the outlet is not a screw-off aerator a user can pocket. That construction is the reason it gets specified for public and institutional restrooms rather than residential baths.
5) Is this a one-handle or two-handle metering faucet?
Two handles, hot and cold, each metering separately. Users press both for tempered water. If your facility wants a single tempered push point, you need a single-handle metering model instead.
6) What finish does the American Standard 1340227 lavatory faucet come in?
Chrome, under manufacturer part number 1340227.002. That is the only finish built in this model, so if you are standardizing a building on brushed nickel or matte black you will need a different American Standard series.
