Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If the unit is designed primarily for cooling and only provides supplemental heating
Air conditioning machines of heading 84.15 include reversible heat pumps that are primarily cooling devices; the principal function determines classification.
If the heat pump is part of a larger refrigeration system or not a self-contained package unit
Other refrigerating or freezing equipment not elsewhere specified may apply when the heat pump is integrated into a more complex system.
