Worth Home Products Paint-Grade Premier Series Wood Return Air Grilles
Paint-Grade-Premier-Series: Add the finishing touch to your home by replacing stamped-metal grilles with beautiful, high-quality wood return air grilles. Made with the highest quality tongue-and-groove technique, each piece is nailed and glued to endure the strongest, most long-lasting construction. These grilles come with an easy-to-install metal sleeve that holds a standard 1" A/C filter and ensures a flush wall mount without tools.
- PGF2030 shown in picture
- Primed and ready-to-paint the color of your wall or trim color
- See sizing info below to avoid re-stocking charges on returns
- Filter is not included
- 5-year warranty
All sizes are listed width x height (W x H) to ensure louvers/blades run parallel to the floor. The metal sleeve requires a 3" depth. The opening size is the listed size plus 1/8 inch for clearance. Covers are ordered based on the size of the opening you are covering. The overall dimensions will be larger due to the 2" decorative outer casing/flange. REMOVE the old vent cover and measure the inside opening. For example, the PGF2520 (a 25" W x 20" H list size vent cover) requires a minimum opening of 25-1/8" W x 20-1/8" H.

#3 | Q: could you tell me the percent of actual air flow through the wood grille? In other words, what is the Net Free Ventilating Area (NFA) for a 12x12 wood grille? A: That grille has 88.5 inches NFA Asked on 2020-01-27 by Tim |
#4 | Q: How do you change the filter on a regular basis...pull the wood grille entirely out or does it swing open? A: These come out by pulling on the grille. Comes out pretty easy, thats why they are not suitable for ceilings. Asked on 2020-01-21 by Allison |
#5 | Q: What are the front external dimensions of the PGF1625 16.5 x 25.5 vent? My intake is right next to a wall and I want to make sure it will fit. A: That size is 18-13/16 x 26-9/16 inch. Here are the full dimensions: https://www.hvacquick.com/catalog_files/Worth_Grille_Size_Info.pdf Asked on 2020-01-05 by Chris |
#6 | Q: Can this be used as an air return on the a/c door in order to replace a metal air grille A: The metal mounting frame requires 3 inches of depth so probably not a good fit for a door. Asked on 2019-08-09 by M |
#7 | Q: I need 2 units, 14 wide x 24 tall1 unit 24 wide x 24 tall. A: Only the sizes listed are available in this series. Asked on 2019-07-20 by LW |
#8 | Q: What do you do when there is a stud in the middle of the return opening? A: Filter grilles require the frame and filter to be recessed/inserted into the opening. If you have a stud preventing the frame insert you will not be able to use a filter grille like this. Asked on 2019-04-01 by Gene |
#9 | Q: Can the slats face up as well as down? I dont want to be able to see my filter through the slats. A: Yes, these can be installed upside down if required. Asked on 2019-01-19 by ELF |
#10 | Q: Would it be possible to nail the grill directly into the wall rather than using the frame (Im covering up a hole in the wall. A: Not recommended. The grille is designed to insert into the metal frame. I would be concerned about the flanges/joints coming apart if screwing/nailing through the flanges. Asked on 2018-06-17 by Jenny |
#11 | Q: can we order a custom size of 25x30 in paint grade? A: Unfortunately no. The custom sizes are available in the AFG series only -- which can be stained or painted. Asked on 2018-06-01 by Bud |
