Alternative Classifications

This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.

8402.12.00.00Lower: 39.3% vs 40.2%

If steam production is 15-45 t per hour

Watertube boilers with lower steam output shift to the 8402.12 subheading based on capacity thresholds.

8403.10.00.00Lower: 17.5% vs 40.2%

If designed for central heating with low-pressure steam capability

Boilers primarily for hot water central heating, even if producing some low-pressure steam, are classified in 8403.

8410.11.00.00Lower: 38.8% vs 40.2%

If sold as a complete heat/steam power plant set

Assemblies combining boilers with engines or turbines for power generation may fall under complete plant provisions.
