Hart Cooley 26516X20 Heavy Duty Steel Floor Return Air Grille Golden Sand Finish 16 Inches X 20 Inches

Product Description

The Hart Cooley 26516X20 is a heavy duty steel floor return air grille from the 265 product family, designed for demanding HVAC applications where durability and consistent airflow are required. Built entirely from steel, this floor grille delivers a firm, smooth walking surface that holds up to heavy foot traffic in residential and commercial settings. HVAC technicians and contractors rely on floor return air grilles like this one to draw conditioned air back into the duct system efficiently, and the 26516X20 is engineered to do exactly that. The grille measures 16 inches x 20 inches in size, with an overall length of approximately 21.8125 inches and a width of approximately 17.8125 inches, making it suitable for standard floor duct openings in that size range. The extremely rigid all-steel construction resists warping and flexing under load, which is a common concern with plastic or lightweight alternatives. Free area averages over 75 percent, meaning air flows through with minimal restriction, supporting balanced return air performance across the system. The fins are set at a 90-degree angle with a 1/2 inch fin spacing, optimized for floor return air applications. The grille is finished in a Golden Sand enamel coating that blends with many interior flooring styles while also protecting the steel from moisture and corrosion. This is a non-adjustable, fixed-blade grille with no curved blade design, keeping the construction straightforward and maintenance-free. It ships as a single unit and is manufactured in Mexico. The 26516X20 is a reliable floor return grille choice for HVAC replacement projects, new construction rough-ins, and retrofit installations where a heavy duty steel grille with a quality finish is needed.
