Bemis 1500EC 006 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What happens if my bowl is round instead of elongated - can I still use the 1500EC?
No. The 1500EC is cut to an elongated footprint, 18.875 inches long, and it will overhang a round bowl by roughly two inches at the front. A round bowl needs a round seat. The quickest check without a tape measure: an elongated bowl is oval and a round bowl is close to a circle at the rim.
2) How do you get a Bemis 1500EC seat off for cleaning?
The Easy Clean hinge lets the seat lift off the bowl without tools and without touching the mounting nuts underneath the china. That is the point of the EC in the model number, and it is why the seat gets specified in multi-family and hospitality units where housekeeping has to clean around the hinge posts on a schedule. The hinges themselves are plastic, so there is nothing to corrode where the seat meets the bowl.
3) Is an enameled wood toilet seat durable enough for a rental or a busy building?
Enameled wood is the heavier, more rigid option compared with a molded plastic seat, and the high-gloss enamel finish resists chipping and scratching. It has more heft under a user than plastic and it will not flex. Where it differs from plastic: the finish is a coating over a wood core, so a cracked or chipped enamel surface will not recover, whereas plastic is solid through. For turnover units and single-family rentals the enameled wood holds up well; for a heavily abused public restroom, a solid plastic seat is the more forgiving pick.
4) What colors does the Bemis 1500EC toilet seat come in?
Ten colors: White, Cotton White, Bone, Biscuit, Almond, Fawn Beige, Ice Grey, Silver, Venetian Pink, and Dresden Blue. The bumpers and hinges are color-matched to the seat, so you are not putting a white hinge on an almond seat. That range is what makes the 1500EC useful on older buildings, where the china is often a discontinued 1960s to 1980s color and a white seat is the giveaway that something was replaced.
5) I manage a building with mixed toilet colors - how do I match a Bemis seat to bone versus biscuit versus almond?
Bone, Biscuit, and Almond are three separate colors in the 1500EC line and they do not substitute for each other. Bone is the coolest of the three, Biscuit warmer, Almond warmer still. The reliable method is to pull an existing seat and read the color number stamped on the underside, then order the same number rather than eyeballing the china. If the fixture is Kohler or American Standard, the bowl color name printed under the tank lid is what to match to. Same logic separates White from Cotton White, which are distinct choices here.
6) Does the Bemis 1500EC come with mounting hardware, or do I need to buy bolts separately?
The seat ships as a complete assembly with its hinges and color-matched bumpers, and an installation guide is supplied with it. Nothing else is required to hang it on a standard two-hole elongated bowl at 5.5 inch bolt spread. A basin wrench or a pair of pliers helps if you are reaching up behind the bowl in a tight alcove, but no special tool is needed.
7) Should I choose an enameled wood seat like the Bemis 1500EC or a plastic toilet seat?
Pick the enameled wood 1500EC when you want weight, rigidity, and a gloss finish that matches older colored china, which is the usual case in residential units and remodels. Pick plastic when the seat will be cleaned with harsh chemicals, hit by heavy traffic, or exposed to standing moisture, because plastic is solid through the section and shrugs off a chip. The 1500EC splits the difference on maintenance with its lift-off Easy Clean hinge, which removes the seat for cleaning without tools.
8) Is the Bemis 1500EC made in the USA?
Country of origin on the 1500EC is the United States. That matters on public work where a Buy American or domestic-preference clause sits in the specification, and it is worth capturing on the submittal for government, school, and healthcare jobs.
9) How much clearance does a Bemis 1500EC add above the bowl rim?
Seat height on the 1500EC is 2 inches, measured on the seat and cover assembly. That figure is what you need when a wall-hung grab bar, a bidet attachment, or a raised-height ADA fixture puts the finished seat surface at a target elevation, since the seat stacks on top of the china rim. It also tells you the cover will clear a tank lever or a rear-mounted flushometer handle by that same 2 inches at the hinge end.
