Fabricated from hot dip galvanized steel at 28 gauge, it provides a durable, corrosion-resistant housing that securely holds a standard 14 x 25 inch filter element. The rack opens on the short side, allowing straightforward filter access without removing the unit from the duct. HVAC technicians and sheet metal contractors install this component as part of residential and light commercial return air systems where a dedicated filter location is required within the duct run.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis filter rack is sized for 14 x 25 inch filters and mounts into sheet metal return air ductwork. It is suited for residential forced-air systems and light commercial applications where return air filtration is integrated directly into the duct. The short-side opening design is useful in installations where clearance on the long axis is limited. Sheet metal contractors and HVAC service techs typically install this rack during new construction duct fabrication or as a retrofit addition to an existing return air trunk line.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHot dip galvanized steel construction resists corrosion in return air environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e28 gauge material thickness provides structural rigidity within the duct system\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOpens on the short side for filter access in tight installation conditions\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAccepts standard 14 x 25 inch filter media\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets ACCA and SMACNA applicable standards for duct fabrication\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and new-installation filter rack for 14 x 25 inch return air sheet metal duct systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by licensed sheet metal contractors or HVAC technicians following SMACNA duct construction standards. Shut down the air handling system and confirm the blower is off before cutting into or modifying the return air duct. Secure the rack to the duct using sheet metal screws and seal all joints with UL 181-rated tape or mastic as required by local mechanical code. Confirm the filter seating surface is flush and free of gaps before returning the system to service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFilter Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 14 x 25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hot Dip Galvanized Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 28 Gauge\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType\u003c\/strong\u003e: Return Air Filter Rack\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOpening Side\u003c\/strong\u003e: Short Side\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUsed On\u003c\/strong\u003e: Sheet Metal Duct\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplicable Standards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ACCA, SMACNA\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: FR_14X25\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SOUTHWARK METAL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51284052148530,"sku":"FR_14X25","price":36.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/309278370.jpg?v=1781067229","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/southwark-metal-fr_14x25-duct-filter-rack-14x25-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
