Overview
This HTS category encompasses combined refrigerator-freezers that are specifically designed with separate external doors or drawers for both the refrigerator and freezer compartments, or combinations of such configurations. These units are characterized by their distinct access points for each section, ensuring that opening one compartment does not compromise the temperature of the other. This classification is primarily for electric units, though other types of refrigeration mechanisms could also fall within this description if they meet the combined and separate door criteria.
Within the broader scope of combined refrigerator-freezers, this specific subcategory is distinguished by the type of refrigeration system employed. It pertains to units that utilize a compression refrigeration cycle, which is the most common technology for modern refrigerators and freezers. This differentiates them from absorption-type or other less common refrigeration mechanisms that might be found in different branches of the tariff schedule.
As a leaf node, this category represents a definitive classification for a particular type of appliance. Therefore, further subdivision is not applicable. Products classified here would include common household French door refrigerator models featuring a bottom freezer drawer, provided they meet the specified volume and width parameters established in the preceding hierarchical levels. The emphasis is on the physical configuration and the type of refrigeration system for definitive classification.
