Import Tips
• Verify the system is truly self-contained with integrated pump; separate components may classify under 8413.91
• Provide detailed specs on pump capacity and water flow to confirm household use, avoiding industrial pump misclassification
• Include NSF/ANSI certification docs for filtration claims to prevent FDA or EPA scrutiny at import
