BACK-TO-BACK INSTALLATION

American Standard ASD10238 Studio S Studio Estate and Cadet 3 Concealed Trapway 2-Piece Toilets 7

Depending upon your plumbing and venting conditions, the flow from the toilet in a back-to-back installation may create a vacuum on the system and draw water from the opposing bowl. The National Standards Plumbing Code prohibits the use of a cross fitting for drainage as throw over is possible. The code does approve a directional “Y” style fitting with proper venting to direct the water downward and away from the other toilet.
