Import Tips & Compliance

Verify exact refrigerated volume via manufacturer specs to confirm 184-269L range; volumes outside trigger different subheadings

Ensure ENERGY STAR or regional efficiency labeling compliance and include test reports in documentation

Label with refrigerant type (e.g

R600a) and provide EPA compliance for HFC restrictions
