Import Tips & Compliance

• Include noise reduction certification data to distinguish from standard ballcocks during review

• Document diaphragm material composition to confirm it's not a pressure-reducing valve

• Avoid shipping in bulk consumer packaging; use trade packaging to prevent retail set classification
