Flushing System
The Champion 4 has one of American Standard’s most powerful flushing systems. With a 4″ flush valve, you’ll never worry about needing multiple flushes for one bathroom trip. At 2-3/8″, its extra-wide glazed trapway is also larger than usual, ensuring effective waste removal. Compared to standard toilets with 2” trapways, the Champion 4 can move waste that is up to 75% larger.- 4″ piston action Accelerator flush valve
- 2-3/8″ glazed trapway
- Uses 1.6 gallons per flush
Design and Style
This toilet is made from vitreous china–a strong and durable material that is proven to last at least 10 years, making it an excellent long-lasting investment for your bathroom. The Champion 4 has a modern style with sleek lines and a more distinctly cubic tank. Its single-piece design also adds to the modern effect. It features an elongated bowl for maximum comfort and comes with a slow-close seat and lid. The oval toilet bowl design offers a large sitting area that provides superior comfort for people of all sizes. This toilet is not ADA-compliant, although its shorter height of 15″ at the rim may be more comfortable for children and shorter adults.- Left hand chrome trip lever
- Exposed trapway
- One-piece unit
- Slow-close seat included

Simple Installation
To start, just like the American Standard Cadet 3, this toilet requires a standard 12-inch rough-in for installation. Since the Champion 4 is a one-piece toilet that is heavier than two-piece toilets, you will want an extra pair of hands for its installation. Here are the main steps to install the Champion 4:- STEP 1: Install the bolts in the flange.
- STEP 2: Install the wax ring and add a sealant around the base.
- STEP 3: Place the toilet in the correct position and make sure that the bolts enter the right holes.
- STEP 4: Use nuts and washers to secure the toilet in place, ensuring that the toilet is not too tight.
- STEP 5: Press down on the flange and connect the water supply.
