Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If the heat pump is primarily part of a refrigeration system
This alternative covers other refrigerating or freezing equipment, which may be more appropriate if the heat pump is integral to the refrigeration cycle.
If the heat pump is used for industrial process heating
Machinery for the treatment of materials by a change of temperature, such as process heating, may fall under this alternative.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Document the heat recovery function and provide schematics showing the heat pump's role in heating, not cooling, to justify classification under 8418.61.00
• Check if the equipment requires certification under the Canadian Electrical Code (CSA) for industrial installations
• Be prepared to declare the refrigerant charge and ensure compliance with the Ozone-Depleting Substances Regulations
