Import Tips
• Verify copper alloy composition exceeds 97% for 8481 classification; provide material test reports to CBP
• Ensure pressure rating certification under 850 kPa; common pitfall is mislabeling high-pressure models
• Include detailed installation diagrams in documentation to prove hand-operated bath/shower function
