Trying to find the right HVAC register for your project? The most common point of confusion about HVAC grilles is how they are measured. The dimensions that suppliers and manufacturers list when talking about HVAC registers is the size of the vent area, not the size of the plate area. The reason for this is simple. When people are building homes and apartment buildings, they are buying both the registers and the ducts together. So, an 16” by 6” duct goes with an 16” by 6” register. Pretty straight forward, right?

Before we talk about tile, take a look at your kitchen design and ask yourself this question: Do you have sparkling granite or quartz countertops and statement light fixtures, or do your cabinets, fixtures, and finishes blend together? Either way, a kitchen with too many focal points can make your space look a bit noisy while a monochromatic design can feel boring.
