Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If refrigerated volume is under 269 liters
Smaller capacity household compression refrigerators fall into the sub-269L statistical suffix, changing the specific duty rate.
If absorption-type cooling system
Absorption refrigerators, using heat instead of electric compressors, are classified separately from compression-type units.
If designed for commercial or institutional use
Commercial-grade refrigerators, even with similar volumes, are excluded from household provisions and go under other refrigerating equipment.
