American Standard 6540174.002 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) How much clearance does the gooseneck spout give over the sink, and can it swivel?
The gooseneck spout reaches 5 inches (127 mm) out over the bowl and is field-convertible between rigid and swivel. Out of the box you can set it either way, so a hand sink that needs the spout parked in one position and a two-bowl prep sink that needs swing are both covered by the same faucet.
2) What flow rate does this American Standard Monterrey faucet deliver, and will it hold flow if building pressure varies?
Flow is 0.35 gpm (1.3 Lpm) through a pressure-compensating vandal-resistant multi-laminar spray outlet. The pressure-compensating element holds that rate across varying supply pressure, which is what makes it predictable on a large building where pressure changes floor to floor. At 0.35 gpm this is a handwashing-only faucet, not a fill faucet.
3) What supply connections do I need to rough in for the Monterrey widespread gooseneck faucet?
Each valve body has a 1/2 inch (13 mm) male threaded inlet shank with a brass coupling nut. Plan on supply stops with matching 1/2 inch female connections, or flexible risers with 1/2 inch female nuts. The valve bodies themselves are cast brass, and the spout tie-in is 8 inch rigid copper.
4) Are the wrist blade handles on this faucet suitable for a healthcare or school washroom?
The Monterrey gooseneck is specified with vandal-resistant wrist blade handles carrying red and blue temperature indicators, which is the handle style institutions use where users operate the faucet with a forearm rather than a grip. Paired with the vandal-resistant spray outlet, it is built for public and high-traffic washrooms.
5) Do these faucets drip after heavy use, and what is inside the valve?
The Monterrey uses washerless ceramic disc cartridges rather than rubber washers, so there is no seat washer to compress and weep. For an MRO buyer standardizing a building, that is the part of the spec that drives the service call rate.
6) Is this a complete faucet or just a replacement spout assembly?
It is a complete widespread lavatory faucet: two cast brass valve bodies with wrist blade handles, the rigid copper connections, and the convertible gooseneck spout with its pressure-compensating outlet. Supply stops, risers, and the drain are separate items you supply on the job.
7) What finish does the American Standard Monterrey 6540174 come in?
Chrome, under manufacturer part number 6540174.002. That is the only finish this model is built in, so if your other openings or fixtures are polished chrome it will match across the facility.
