American Standard Town Square S Skirted Chair Height Elongated Bowl With Seat - AMS-3851A101

It ships as a combination bowl and tank with the seat included, so it is a complete toilet. You also get a slow-close seat and cover with a lift-off feature, two color-matched bolt hole covers, and a chrome trip lever. You still supply the wax ring or gasket, closet bolts, and the supply line.

It is a chair height elongated bowl with a 16-1/2 inch (419 mm) rim height, which American Standard states is for accessible applications. Seat height with the included seat sits slightly above that. If you are replacing a standard height bowl, expect roughly an inch and a half more seat height.

1.28 gallons per flush (4.8 Lpf), about 20 percent less than a 1.6 gpf fixture, and it meets EPA WaterSense criteria. That matters for rebate programs and for multi-family retrofits where water use is being tracked.

That is the main reason to choose it. The skirted design covers the trapway so there are no contours behind the bowl to wipe around, and the trapway itself is smooth-sided and concealed. The china also carries an EverClean antimicrobial surface, and the PowerWash rim scrubs the bowl on each flush. For a hospitality or multi-family turn, that cuts housekeeping time per fixture.

The fixture side uses a 2-1/8 inch (54 mm) trapway fed by a 3 inch (76 mm) flush valve, which is the large-valve setup that moves the full 1.28 gallons quickly. Your building drain still needs to be the code-required 3 inch closet line; the trapway dimension is internal to the china and does not change the drain requirement.

American Standard classifies the Town Square S skirted chair height toilet as a residential fixture in its luxury line. Property managers do install it in apartments, condos, and hotel guest rooms, but for a high-traffic public restroom you want a flushometer bowl with a commercial valve rather than a tank-type residential unit.

It is part of the Town Square S family and the styling is meant to coordinate across the suite, with a chrome trip lever that matches Town Square S faucets and accessories. If you are standardizing a building on one look, the White and Linen china options are the two to align on across bowls and lavatories.
