American Standard Townsend 8-Inch Widespread Pedestal Sink Top and Leg Combination - AMS-328800

Both pieces ship together. The Townsend 8-inch widespread pedestal sink is a top and leg combination, so you get the lavatory plus the pedestal in one order. A mounting kit is included as well. The faucet is not included, so plan on ordering that separately.

It is drilled for an 8-inch widespread faucet, with the holes on 8 inch (203 mm) centers. That means a three-hole widespread set with separate spout and handles. A single-hole or 4-inch centerset faucet will not mount to this top.

The bowl measures 19 inches (485 mm) wide, 12-3/4 inches (324 mm) front to back, and 5 inches (128 mm) deep. There is also a faucet, soap and accessory ledge with a shelf area behind the bowl, which is what makes this one usable in a small powder room where there is no counter.

The Townsend pedestal is built to American Standard's Right Height, which sets the rim higher than a standard pedestal for more comfortable use while standing. Treat that as a comfort feature rather than a compliance claim, and verify rim height against your local code before specifying it on an accessible fixture count.

Yes, the Townsend lavatory has a rear overflow. Pair it with a lavatory drain assembly that has overflow ports; a grid drain without overflow openings will block the overflow path.

The Townsend ships with a mounting kit, and pedestal lavatories of this type carry their load at the wall with the leg taking the rest, so you want solid backing in the wall at the mounting height. Frame in blocking during rough-in; drywall anchors alone are not adequate for a fireclay basin.

A pedestal like the Townsend hides the trap and supplies behind the leg, which is the usual reason it gets picked for powder rooms and residential baths. A wall-hung lavatory leaves the floor clear underneath, which is what you want for wheelchair knee clearance. Pedestals do not give you that clearance, so for accessible fixtures go wall-hung instead.

It is fine fireclay, a dense vitreous body that is harder and more chip resistant than standard vitreous china, which is why it gets specified in hospitality and rental turnovers where the fixture takes abuse from cleaning crews.

White only, ordered as part number 328800.02. If you are matching other fixtures in the room, the Townsend lavatory is styled to coordinate with the rest of the Townsend fixtures and fittings line.
