Import Tips & Compliance

• Verify electrothermic heating element presence and airflow specs meet hand dryer definition; non-heating air blowers classify elsewhere

• Include ETL/UL certification documentation for electrical safety compliance in sanitary environments

• Declare as 'hand-drying apparatus' not 'air blower' to avoid reclassification to 8414.59
