American Standard 1660509.243 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Does the American Standard Townsend 1660509 showerhead come with a shower arm or valve?
It's the showerhead only. The Townsend 1660509 ships as a head with no shower arm, flange, or valve trim, so you'll need to reuse the existing arm or order one separately along with the valve and trim if you're doing a full rough-in.
2) Will a 1.8 gpm showerhead meet low-flow requirements for a multi-family or hospitality retrofit?
The Townsend fixed head is rated at a maximum 1.8 gpm (6.8 L/min) and is WaterSense Certified, which is the flow level water conservation programs typically ask for. American Standard rates it as saving 30 percent more water than a standard 2.5 gpm head. One caution for spec work: this model is classified as a residential product, so for heavy commercial duty confirm your spec allows a residential-listed head.
3) Will flow drop off in a building with inconsistent water pressure?
The Townsend head has a pressure-compensating flow control device built in, so the spray stays consistent as supply pressure varies rather than surging on upper floors and thinning out on lower ones. That's the reason it holds to the 1.8 gpm rating across a building instead of just at one test pressure.
4) What finishes does the Townsend 1660509 showerhead come in, and how do I order the right one?
Five finishes, each with its own part number: Chrome (1660509.002), Polished Nickel (1660509.013), Matte Black (1660509.243), Brushed Nickel (1660509.295), and Brushed Cool Sunrise (1660509.GN0). The suffix after the decimal is the finish code, so match it to the Townsend valve trim and accessories already in the bath if you're keeping one suite across the room.
5) Can I use this head on a standard shower arm, or do I need an adapter?
It threads onto a conventional shower arm; in the US that connection is the standard 1/2 inch NPT male arm thread, so a straight swap for an existing head needs nothing more than fresh thread tape.
6) Is this a rain head or a wall-mount fixed head?
It's a fixed wall head, not a ceiling rain shower and not a handshower. The 6-1/8 inch face mounts on the existing arm and stays put, so if residents want a handheld for cleaning the tub or for accessibility, you'd pair or substitute a separate handshower kit.
7) How big is this showerhead face, and how much does it weigh on the arm?
The spray face is 6-1/8 inches across, and the unit weighs 1.058 pounds, light enough that a standard existing shower arm carries it without sagging. Shipping footprint runs 8.56 by 7.94 by 3 inches.
8) Will hard water clog the nozzles on this head?
The nozzles on the Townsend fixed head are made to resist clogging and wipe clean, so mineral buildup is cleared by rubbing the face rather than pulling the head for a descale. That matters on a property where maintenance is fielding low-spray complaints unit by unit.
