FC40R and FC20R Return Grille Filter
APPLICATION
The Return Grille Filter is a high-efficiency, long-life
replacement for return grille applications. It captures a
significant amount of the airborne particles in the air that
circulate through the filter.
(Honeywell recommends allowing a depth of four to seven
inches behind the grille to provide space for the deeper filter
and airflow through the filter.)
FEATURES
• Mounts in most third-party return filter grilles.
• Provides high-efficiency alternative to one-inch filter.
• Captures particles as small as 0.3 micron.
• Pleated filter for greater media capacity.
• Easy installation. Pre-assembled filter easily inserts
into and out of existing return grille.
• Exclusive frame design nests properly into place.
• Low pressure drop reduces strain on equipment,
provides a comfortable air flow, and maintains
equipment efficiency longer than standard filters.
