Bobrick 842-225 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What exactly is the Bobrick B-842-225 top housing assembly, and is it a complete soap dispenser?
It's the top housing assembly for a Bobrick Designer Series automatic foam soap dispenser, supplied in Matte Black. It's a replacement/service component for the dispenser rather than a standalone unit, so it's what you order when the visible housing on an existing touch-free foam dispenser is damaged, worn, or being changed out.
2) Will the Matte Black housing match the rest of my Bobrick washroom fittings?
The Designer Series dispensers are offered in five finishes: Polished Chrome, Polished Nickel, Brushed Nickel, Polished Brass and Matte Black. The B-842-225 is the Matte Black version, and Bobrick offers an automatic faucet in a matching finish, so a Matte Black lavatory set will stay consistent. If your other openings are chrome or brushed nickel, order the housing in that finish instead.
3) Can I replace just the top housing instead of the whole soap dispenser?
Yes. The B-842-225 is sold as the top housing assembly on its own, so if the pump, tubing, and reservoir of your Designer Series foam dispenser are fine and only the exposed housing is scratched, corroded, or vandalized, you replace that piece and keep the rest of the installation in place.
4) Does this Bobrick housing work with bulk foam soap or do I need cartridges?
The dispenser this housing belongs to runs on universal bulk foam soap, not proprietary cartridges, which is why facilities pick it for cost-in-use. It's a top-fill design, so soap goes in from above the deck without getting under the counter.
5) Is the Bobrick B-842 dispenser touch-free, and what can be adjusted on it?
It's a touch-free automatic dispenser with sensor activation. Adjustable settings include time-out duration, line purging, sensor range, and LEED flow-rate options, plus a portion control feature that lets you dial down soap use per activation to control consumption in high-traffic restrooms.
6) Will this foam dispenser housing work on a liquid soap system?
No. It's a foam assembly for a foam soap dispenser. Foam and liquid dispensers use different pump and nozzle designs, so the housing is not a swap onto a liquid soap unit. Match the housing to a foam-type Designer Series dispenser.
7) Is the Bobrick Designer Series soap dispenser body metal or plastic?
Die-cast zinc. That matters for public and institutional restrooms where a plastic deck-mounted dispenser gets abused; the metal body is the reason this series gets specified in airports, schools, and hospitality washrooms.
