Shower Thermostatic Valve
A concealed or exposed valve for showers that uses a thermostatic actuator to prevent scalding by stabilizing water temperature. Falls under HTS 8481.80.9045 for its role as a thermostatically controlled plumbing appliance.
Import Duty Rates by Country of Origin
Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If level regulating valves
Pure level control without temperature function uses dedicated provisions.
If replacement valve parts
Individual thermostatic components imported separately are classified as parts.
If copper plumbing fittings
Basic copper pipe fittings without actuators fall under copper articles.
