Sloan 323017 Vacuum Breaker for Flushometer Polished Chrome

Product Description

The SLOAN 323017 V-500-AA is a vacuum breaker designed for use with flushometer-type flush valves in commercial plumbing systems. Vacuum breakers prevent backflow by stopping siphonage from pulling contaminated water back into the potable supply line. This unit measures 1.5 x 15 inches and is finished in polished chrome, making it suited for exposed installations where appearance and code compliance both matter. It is installed by licensed plumbers working on commercial restroom fixtures including water closets and urinals equipped with flushometers.

This vacuum breaker is intended for flushometer applications commonly found in commercial and institutional buildings such as offices, schools, hospitals, and public facilities. The polished chrome finish integrates cleanly with standard exposed flush valve trim. The domestic designation indicates this unit is manufactured for the North American market and meets applicable plumbing code requirements for backflow prevention on flush valve assemblies.

Key Features

• Backflow prevention via vacuum breaker design for flushometer systems
• 1.5 x 15 inch form factor fits standard flushometer valve configurations
• Polished chrome finish for exposed commercial restroom installations

Compatibility

Designed for use with flushometer-type flush valves. Refer to SLOAN V-500-AA series documentation to confirm fitment with specific valve models before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC) backflow prevention requirements. Shut off the water supply to the flush valve before removing the existing vacuum breaker. Do not overtighten threaded connections on the chrome-plated body, as this can damage the finish or distort sealing surfaces. Verify the replacement unit is properly seated and leak-free before returning the system to service.
