Fabricated from 26-gauge galvanized steel, this pan measures 14 inches in height by 30 inches in width and provides a reliable transition point for return air collection in residential and light commercial ductwork. HVAC installers and sheet metal contractors use this component to close off the bottom of a return air trunk, directing conditioned air back to the air handler or furnace. The galvanized steel construction resists corrosion in typical mechanical room and basement environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis return air pan is suited for trunk-style return duct assemblies in warm air heating systems. It is commonly installed beneath a floor joist bay or in a dedicated return chase where the trunk duct terminates at the air handler. The 14 by 30 inch profile accommodates standard trunk duct sizing used in residential new construction and retrofit applications. Sheet metal contractors and HVAC technicians install this component during system roughing or as a replacement for damaged or deteriorated existing pans.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e26-gauge galvanized steel construction for corrosion resistance in mechanical environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e14 inch height by 30 inch width profile fits standard trunk return duct openings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTrunk style configuration for direct integration with warm air return duct assemblies\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWarm air rated for use in forced-air heating and cooling return systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation component for trunk-style warm air return duct systems in residential and light commercial forced-air heating applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed HVAC technician or qualified sheet metal contractor. Power down the air handler or furnace at the disconnect and thermostat before beginning ductwork modifications. Secure the pan to the trunk duct using sheet metal screws and seal all joints with UL-listed duct sealant or foil tape per local mechanical code requirements. Handle cut sheet metal edges with care to avoid injury from sharp burrs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Galvanized Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGauge\u003c\/strong\u003e: 26\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle\u003c\/strong\u003e: Trunk\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 14 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 30 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType\u003c\/strong\u003e: Warm Air\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: SOUTHWARK METAL\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1701430\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SOUTHWARK METAL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51268911497522,"sku":"1701430","price":169.48,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/308911822.png?v=1780709422","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/southwark-metal-1701430-return-air-pan-14x30-26-gauge","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
