Import Tips & Compliance

• Confirm the unit's weight and cooling capacity in kW (not just BTU) on the invoice to ensure classification under this item

• Check that the product complies with Canada's energy efficiency regulations (NRCan)

• If the unit exceeds 1.8 kW, it will be classified under a different tariff item
