Cadet 3 Compact Toilets Fit Premium Comfort and Performance Into Tight Spaces
Tuesday May 8th, 2007
Toronto,Ontario (May 8, 2007) — There’s a lot to be said for a comfortable toilet. A great looking, comfortable toilet that helps keep itself clean and resists clogging seems almost too good to be true.
American Standard introduces the toilet of your dreams with new elongated Cadet® 3 Compact toilet that fits elongated comfort into a round front space. The Cadet 3 Compact toilet is available in both one- and two-piece models, and features American Standard’s fired-in, permanent, antimicrobial EverClean™, the surface that helps it stay cleaner longer. The transitionally-styled one-piece has the extra comfort of Right Height complete with a color-matched slow-close EverClean toilet seat and EverClean trip lever. A market winner since its launch last year, the gravity-fed Cadet 3 flushing system has an oversized chemical-resistant flapper and generous three-inch flush valve, allowing more water to enter the bowl faster for greater flushing power. The new Cadet 3 Compact toilet has a 2 1/8-inch fully glazed trapway that eliminates “choking” points,and reduces water turbulence. The result is a quiet, but powerful flush every time, capable of flushing 150 feet of toilet paper with just 1.6 gallons per flush (gpf).
“Not that we ever expect people—let’s say adults—to use that much toilet paper in one flush, but it assures users that the beauty of the Cadet 3 styles aren’t marred by the ugliness of clogging and overflows,” said James Walsh, American Standard product director for chinaware.
The Cadet 3 toilet further prevents ugliness with silver-based EverClean, which inhibits the growth of stain- and odor-causing bacteria, mold and mildew, helping to keep the toilet clean for the life of the product. A sloping bowl backsplash virtually eliminates liquids from collecting between the tank and bowl.
“No one can resist the idea of spending less time cleaning toilets,” Walsh said. Not to mention less time spent on installation—30 percent less time on average—using the Cadet 3 Speed Connect™ kit with factory-installed bolts and grommets and one-piece nut/washer assembly. American Standard even includes a convenient tool as part of the package. Cadet 3’s four contact points deliver tank-to-bowl stability that eliminates rocking.
American Standard provides a five-year warranty on Cadet 3’s tank and trim, including the flapper. Compared to the new Champion® 4 flushing system with an unprecedented four-inch flush valve, Walsh noted that Cadet 3 is a more moderately priced high-performance toilet. American Standard backs Champion 4 with a premium 10-year warranty on the tank and trim. “Cadet 3 creates a new sales opportunity with top-rated flushing performance at a lower price than most high-performance toilets,” Walsh said.
The new Cadet 3 One-piece Compact is available in White, Bone, Silver, Linen and Black, with suggested list prices starting at $599 in White.
