24"x8" White Steel Baseboard Return Air Grille, 7/8" Turnback Depth

Product Overview

The 24"W x 8"H white steel baseboard return grille carries return air back to the HVAC system through a baseboard opening. Powder-coated steel resists dents and rust for years of use, a stronger choice than lightweight plastic covers. The 1-way blade pattern directs air across the room. Select this baseboard return grille by its duct opening size, not the overall face size, so it seats correctly on the first fit.

Key Features

• Steel construction: Steel keeps the baseboard return grille rigid during installation and resists warping over time.
• White finish: The white finish coordinates with common flooring, trim, and hardware.
• 1-Way air pattern: The 1-way throw sends conditioned air where the space needs it.
• Right-fit sizing: Ordered by duct opening size, this baseboard return grille matches standard duct dimensions and cuts wrong-size returns.

Dimensions and Specifications

Is This the Right Vent for Your Opening?

Choose this baseboard return grille if you need a return-air vent for a baseboard opening. This baseboard return grille carries return air and mounts on baseboard surfaces. It is not designed for floor installation or foot traffic, exterior or outdoor use or dryer exhaust venting. Confirm the airflow function against your HVAC layout before ordering.

How to Measure for This Vent

Measure the open space between the baseboard and the floor where air passes, then match it to the 24"W x 8"H size above. Do not measure the outer flange. The overall face measures 25-3/4"W X 9-3/4"H.

Installation

Position the baseboard return grille over the duct opening with the vanes facing the opening. Confirm the frame sits flush against the baseboard surface before marking the screw points. Secure it with the included screws without overtightening, since excess force can distort the frame.

Care and Maintenance
