FAQ

Q: How does this flush valve compare to standard urinal flush valves?

A: The Z6003AV-WS1 features Zurn's premium AquaVantage® technology with a 1.0 gpf flow rate that conserves water compared to standard 1.5 gpf or older 3.0 gpf models. The triple filtered by-pass system provides superior clog resistance, while the TPE diaphragm offers enhanced durability against chloramines and chemicals. These advanced features result in more reliable performance and lower maintenance requirements compared to standard flush valves.

Q: Is this compatible with most urinal fixtures?

A: Yes, the Z6003AV-WS1 with 1.0 gallon per flush is designed to work with most standard urinal fixtures. The 3/4" valve size is the industry standard for urinal applications. For optimal performance, ensure your urinal fixture is rated for at least 1.0 gpf operation. When retrofitting older fixtures, this valve can provide significant water savings while maintaining proper evacuation in most cases.

Q: What maintenance is required for this flush valve?

A: Regular maintenance includes annual inspection of the diaphragm assembly and cleaning the control stop filter screen if reduced flow is observed. The AquaVantage® TPE diaphragm with triple filtered by-pass significantly reduces maintenance needs by preventing clogs and resisting chemical deterioration. For optimal performance, periodically clean chrome surfaces with mild soap and water, and follow winterization procedures for seasonal installations.

Detailed Features & Benefits

Premium AquaVantage® Technology: The Z6003AV-WS1 represents Zurn's premium flush valve technology with several advanced features. The AquaVantage® TPE dual seal diaphragm provides superior resistance to chloramines and other harsh chemicals commonly found in municipal water supplies. This specialized thermoplastic elastomer material maintains flexibility and sealing performance far longer than conventional rubber diaphragms. The triple filtered by-pass system prevents debris from affecting operation, significantly reducing the most common causes of flush valve failure and maintenance calls. This combination delivers exceptional reliability even in challenging water conditions and high-usage environments.

Water-Saving Performance: With a 1.0 gallon per flush rating, this valve provides an optimal balance between water conservation and reliable performance. The precise engineering ensures complete bowl evacuation and trap seal maintenance while using 33% less water than older 1.5 gpf models and 67% less than traditional 3.0 gpf fixtures. In commercial settings with multiple urinals, these savings quickly accumulate to thousands of gallons annually, reducing both water consumption and utility costs. The water-efficient design helps facilities meet sustainability goals and comply with increasingly stringent water use regulations without compromising functionality.

Commercial-Grade Construction: Built for demanding commercial environments, the Z6003AV-WS1 features a chrome-plated brass body with Zurn's proprietary dezincification-resistant low lead alloy that provides enhanced durability in aggressive water conditions. The vandal-resistant features include a stop cap and non-hold-open handle design that prevents tampering and continuous water flow. The ADA-compliant handle operates with less than 5 pounds of force, ensuring accessibility for all users. The complete package includes a sweat solder kit and cast wall flange with setscrew, providing everything needed for a professional installation that will deliver years of reliable service in high-traffic restrooms.

NOTICE: Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality.
