Import Tips
• Verify energy efficiency ratings (SEER/HSPF) comply with DOE standards and include test reports in documentation
• Ensure UL/CSA certification for electrical components to avoid CBP holds at entry
• Label units clearly with model, capacity, and refrigerant type (e.g
• R-410A) per EPA requirements
