Import Tips
• Document heating element specs separately to distinguish from pure steam humidifiers (8509.80.10)
• Ensure product labeling specifies 'domestic use' to avoid reclassification as commercial equipment
• Test for ultrasonic frequency (>1.7 MHz typically) as proof against evaporative humidifier claims
