Import Tips
• Provide manufacturer's performance certificate showing kW input under 17.58 to avoid duty escalation
• Comply with ASHRAE 90.1 efficiency standards; non-compliant units face additional regulatory hurdles
• Separate from evaporator coils in shipment to maintain condensing unit classification; bundled sets use different codes
