7255, 7162 specifications

The American Standard 7162 and 7255 models are modern bathroom sink faucets that epitomize both style and functionality, making them a popular choice among homeowners and designers alike. These faucets are crafted with an emphasis on durable construction, contemporary aesthetics, and cutting-edge technology that enhances user experience.

One of the key features of both models is the use of quality materials, ensuring longevity while resisting corrosion and tarnishing. The shiny chrome or brushed nickel finishes not only enhance the faucet’s look but also make it easier to clean. The ergonomic design of the handles offers a comfortable grip, allowing for effortless operation, whether users prefer a single-handle or a widespread configuration.

In terms of technology, both the 7162 and 7255 are equipped with the patented American Standard ceramic disc valve. This valve technology provides a smooth operation and ensures a drip-free performance, reducing water waste and providing peace of mind. With a focus on water efficiency, both models meet WaterSense criteria, allowing users to save on utility bills without sacrificing performance.

Another distinct characteristic of these models is the easy installation process. The drain assembly is designed for quick and straightforward installation, making it accessible for those who choose to undertake the project themselves. The faucets come with a comprehensive instruction manual, which guides users through the installation steps to ensure a hassle-free setup.

Additionally, American Standard faucets are known for their innovative flow control technology. With a maximum flow rate of 1.2 gallons per minute, users can enjoy a powerful water stream that meets daily needs while being environmentally responsible. These faucets are also suited for various sink types, providing versatility in design and utility.

Lastly, the sleek and modern design of the 7162 and 7255 allows them to seamlessly blend into various bathroom decors, whether traditional, contemporary, or minimalist. Customers appreciate the balance of style and functionality, making these faucets an ideal choice for enhancing the overall aesthetic and efficiency of the bathroom space. Ultimately, American Standard has successfully combined innovative features with a commitment to quality, creating faucets that are both beautiful and practical.
