American Standard Expands Cadet
PRO Portfolio of Trade Exclusive Toilets.
New Tank Designs, Colors and Lever Options Added to Trusted,
High Performance Cadet PRO Toilet Series.
The American Standard Cadet PRO toilet collection has been expanded to provide a
full portfolio of five different bowl and tank options, in both standard and
water saving models, exclusively for wholesale distribution.
Offering robust metal parts, an oversized 3-inch flush valve and a variety of
plumber-recommended special features, this complete assortment of two-piece
American Standard toilets is engineered to deliver a lifetime of virtually
clog-free performance. This line offers plumbing professionals a myriad of
options to customize their Cadet PRO to the specific customer's bathroom needs.
Joining the original two Cadet PRO high efficiency toilet (HET) tank styles,
which are available with or without a tank liner and locking tank cover, are
these three new tank designs:
• the angular Studio tank that is ideal for modern bathroom settings
• the curved Tropic tank that offers classic styling with an eye toward
simplicity
• the unique Triangle tank that allows the toilet to be installed in a corner or
anywhere space is tight.
All five tank styles are now offered in the standard 1.6 gallons per flush (gpf)
version and are available with or without a tank liner and locking tank cover.
All except the Triangle tank are also available in high efficiency, water-saving
1.28 gpf models.
Five bowl options are included in the Cadet PRO line: Right Height (16 1/2-inch)
elongated, Right Height round front, compact Right Height, standard height
(15-inch) elongated and standard height round front. The Right Height compact
elongated bowl offers the comfort of an elongated seat while using the space of
the smaller round front design. Story continues below

All bowls are available in
both 12-inch and 10-inch rough-ins, except for the Compact
Right Height elongated that is offered in 12-inch and
14-inch rough-ins.
Designer Colors and Finishes
All models are available in a color selection of white, bone
and linen, with certain elongated and round front models now
offered in black, as well.
Options for customizing the design of this collection don’t
end with the chinawear. While chrome trip levers come
standard on all Cadet PRO models, other available lever
finishes include satin nickel, oil rubbed bronze, white,
bone and linen. Buyers can even specify the location of the
trip lever; Cadet PRO toilet tanks come standard with the
trip lever on the left side, but a chrome lever on the right
hand side of the tank is also available.
Performance and Durability
The Cadet PRO flushing platform has an oversized 3-inch
flush valve and 2 1/8-inch trapway that can move a mass 60
percent larger than with a standard toilet bowl. This line
of high performance toilets leverages the American Standard
PowerWash bowl cleaning technology for a quiet, yet powerful
flush. PowerWash scrubs the bowl with pressurized water from
the rim during every flush to remove every last trace of
paper and waste.
Thanks to these high performance features, Cadet PRO toilets
achieve the highest bulk removal MaP score of 1,000 grams
using both the standard 1.6 gpf and the water saving 1.28
gpf. Map is an independent testing group that reports on
toilet bulk removal performance.
The 1.28 gpf Cadet PRO high efficiency toilets use 20
percent less water than traditional 1.6 gpf models,
qualifying for U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
WaterSense-certification for providing water savings along
with high performance.
For lasting durability and reliable performance for the
lifetime of the toilet, these trade exclusive models include
robust metal parts not found on products sold at big box
stores. The Cadet PRO line offers a five year limited
warranty on tank and trim.
Smart Features
Every toilet model in the Cadet PRO line 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 EverClean surface is included at no extra
charge, unlike some competitors that offer a surface
treatment as an upgrade or don't offer any at all.
Another innovative feature offered by the Cadet PRO series
is its easy installation process. Each PRO series toilet
includes an EZ-Install installation kit designed to ensure
that floor bolts remain upright, the tank-to-bowl connection
process is streamlined, and the time-consuming task of bolt
cutting is eliminated.
