Import Tips
• Document food-grade safe construction if marketed for potable water; untreated acacia requires liner specification
• Provide assembly instructions showing traditional cooperage (staves + hoops) to distinguish from molded composite tubs
• Check state rainwater harvesting regulations; some US states restrict capacity over 55 gallons requiring additional permits
