Product Description
The SteelCrest BTU20X14RORBH is a fixed return air grille constructed from solid steel with an oil-rubbed bronze powder-coat finish. It is designed to cover a 20 x 14 inch duct opening with an overall face size of 22 x 16 inches, making it a direct-fit replacement for standard return-air openings in residential and light-commercial HVAC systems. The slotted face design allows consistent airflow back to the air handler or furnace while maintaining a finished, architectural appearance. HVAC technicians and remodeling contractors install this grille in both new construction and retrofit applications on walls or ceilings.
This grille fits standard return-air duct openings measuring 20 x 14 inches and installs flush against drywall, plaster, or ceiling surfaces. The 22 x 16 inch face plate overlaps the duct opening to conceal rough edges left during framing or remodeling work. It is suited for residential forced-air systems where a decorative yet functional return-air cover is needed. The fixed-blade design makes it appropriate for return-side applications where airflow direction control is not required.

Installation Notes
Installation is typically performed by an HVAC technician or general contractor during system service, new construction, or remodeling work. Power down the HVAC system at the thermostat or disconnect before removing the existing grille. Secure the grille to the wall or ceiling surface using fasteners through the face frame into the surrounding framing or drywall substrate. Do not obstruct the duct opening with sealant or framing materials that would reduce the effective return-air area.
