8415.82.01 - Other, incorporating a refrigerating unit

This HTS classification covers air conditioning machines that are equipped with a refrigerating unit but do not fit into the more specific categories of reversible heat pumps or those not incorporating a refrigerating unit. These machines are designed for changing the temperature and humidity of air, utilizing a motor-driven fan and elements for temperature and humidity alteration. The inclusion of a refrigerating unit is the defining characteristic for this category.

Distinguishing this classification from its siblings, 8415.81.01 specifically covers reversible heat pumps that incorporate a refrigerating unit and a valve for cycle reversal, allowing for both cooling and heating. In contrast, 8415.83.00 encompasses air conditioning machines that do not contain an integrated refrigerating unit. Therefore, 8415.82.01.00 is for units with refrigeration capabilities that are not reversible heat pumps.

The subcategories under this heading further refine the classification based on the configuration and intended use of the air conditioning machines. These subdivisions differentiate between self-contained and remote condenser units, year-round heating and cooling systems, units designed for use with water chillers, and specialized dehumidifiers. The most specific child node, 8415.82.01.70, addresses other air conditioning machines incorporating a refrigerating unit that do not fall into the more narrowly defined subcategories.
