200101 American Standard Suction Cover Assembly

The 200101 American Standard Suction Cover Assembly is a safety-forward upgrade designed to protect bathers in whirlpool tubs without dulling the spa experience. Built on the trusted design American Standard has relied on for over 15 years, this kit fits American Standard tubs and a wide range of other manufacturers’ whirlpool systems, offering a reliable, long-lasting solution for safer soaks.

Why safety matters when you’re relaxing in a whirlpool: high-powered jets create strong suction that can pose risks for young children, hair entanglement, or uncomfortable cling. This suction cover uses a mesh design with multiple smaller openings to reduce suction power while preserving strong water flow and jet action. You get a calmer, safer soak with less chance of entrapment or hair pulling, all while keeping the exhilarating spa experience intact.

Key benefits that set this apart

• Mesh-driven safety with even suction distribution: The design channels water efficiently through the cover, lowering suction power where it matters most but maintaining effective circulation.
• Broad compatibility: Exact wall fitting size accommodates a 2-3/4 inch hole, aligning with standard whirlpool plumbing connections for American Standard tubs and many other manufacturers’ systems.
• Clean, unobtrusive finish: White, low-profile appearance blends with most bathroom fixtures while delivering a modern safety upgrade.
• Complete, ready-to-install kit: Includes suction cover, wall fitting, 1-1/2" suction elbow, and installation tool 500108—everything you need for a straightforward replacement.
• Regulatory-aligned safety: Designed to meet established safety standards, supporting safer bathing environments in homes and facilities alike.
