American Standard AccessPRO Toilet: Achieve Accessibility Standards with Less Time, Cost

See the AccessPRO Toilet Video here.

PISCATAWAY, N.J. (May 6, 2014) – Relocating a toilet to conform to accessibility standards is easier and less expensive than ever with the new high efficiency AccessPRO toilet from American Standard. Its unique design allows up to 3 ½-inches of lateral adjustment of the toilet bowl to the right – or to the left when used with the left hand bowl – without changing the floor flange outlet location.

Intended to help conform to the requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), Fair Housing Act (FHA), and Multifamily Housing Resource Program (MHRP), this innovative model saves both time and money when relocating a toilet to meet accessibility standards.

For easy installation, a floor template, adjustable trapway kit, and slow-close seat are all included with the toilet. The AccessPRO toilet boasts comfortable 16 ½-inch Right Height styling, with an elongated bowl for added user comfort and accessibility. It has a 12-inch rough-in.

This two-piece toilet features a 3-inch flush valve and 2 1/8-inch trapway that provides reliable flushing performance. The AccessPRO also leverages the American Standard PowerWash bowl cleaning technology for a quiet, yet powerful, flush that scrubs the bowl with pressurized water from the rim during each flush to remove every last trace of paper and waste.

Thanks to these top-quality features, the AccessPRO achieves the highest bulk removal score on the Maximum Performance (MaP) test, an independent report of toilet performance. This toilet can successfully flush 1,000 grams (2.2 pounds) of waste while using a water-saving 1.28 gallons per flush (gpf). This earns it WaterSense-certification from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) for providing high performance while consuming 20 percent less water than standard toilet models.

Even regular maintenance and cleaning is easy with the AccessPRO, which features EverClean, the unique permanent finish from American Standard that inhibits the growth of stain and odor-causing bacteria, mold and mildew on the surface, helping toilets stay cleaner, longer.

The AccessPRO is available in white with two additional colors – bone and linen – available by special order. The choice of a robust metal left or right hand trip lever, in polished chrome finish, is also offered. The AccessPRO is covered by a five-year limited warranty.
