Import Tips

Verify energy efficiency ratings and refrigerant type (e.g

R32) compliance with EPA SNAP regulations and label accordingly

Include compressor model specs and kW rating certification in documentation to confirm sub-17.58 kW classification

Avoid misclassification as full AC units by importing without indoor evaporator; common pitfall is incomplete bills of lading
