Import Tips
• Verify rated water removal capacity via manufacturer specs and include test reports in documentation to confirm <35L/24hr classification
• Label units clearly with energy efficiency ratings and refrigerant type (e.g
• R410A) to meet EPA compliance
• Avoid misclassification as larger units; common pitfall is failing to provide capacity certification leading to reclassification
