Import Tips
• Provide carbonation and syrup flow diagrams in entry docs to distinguish from ice makers or general chillers
• Comply with UL safety listings for electrical components; missing marks lead to redelivery demands
• Avoid reclassification by specifying multi-flavor dispensing capability in commercial contexts
