Our library is replacing a 50 year old toilet in a public, single person bathroom that get daily use (5-15 visits/day 6 days week). We pay for water so GPF is a concern but not the driving factor as it would be in some areas of the country.
Unlike some private homes that can clean as needed, this public toilet will only be cleaned 1x/week so consistent cleaning with each flush is important. We have narrowed our replacement choice to the 2 part Drake 776 ( I believe this is the 2021 version) 1.6gpf with the universal height of 16 1/8" w/o seat. (washlet style is not an option for us)
Because this is a public install, we want an ADA compliant unit (not just Universal height) that measures a minimum of 17" to top of the seat. Does anyone know if Toto offers an open/split front commercial style seat (with lid) to fit this Drake model ? And, if they do, when it's installed will it meet the ADA requirement of 17"? I can't find this style on the Toto website.
Our NH based supplier has quoted a seat "Tlt St Ofwc Pls Wht F /comm Top-Tite" with a descriptor # 4530431Z but I think this is their in-house inventory number and description so can't locate a spec sheet online to get measurements or to see if it comes from Toto.
Thanks in advance for any guidance you can provide - like so many posters here, the information on this site has been tremendously helpful and much appreciated.
