Overview
This HTS category, 9902.16.43, specifically covers integrated heating units designed for residential ceiling installation. These units are characterized by their combination of a heater, a fan, and a light. A key distinguishing feature is the presence of an adjustable louver within the grille, which can be rotated 360 degrees to manually direct the heat output. The classification of these goods is temporary, falling under Chapter 99 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule, which addresses special classification provisions, temporary legislation, and modifications proclaimed pursuant to trade agreements and Section 22 of the Agricultural Adjustment Act.
As a leaf node within the HTS database, this category does not have further subdivisions. Therefore, the focus for classification under 9902.16.43 is on the specific combination of features: the integrated nature of the heater, fan, and light; the permanent ceiling installation design; and the unique 360-degree adjustable louver for heat direction. Understanding these precise physical and functional characteristics is crucial for distinguishing these specialized residential heating units from other types of heating appliances or ventilation equipment that might fall under different HTS headings, particularly those found within Section 16 (Electrical machinery and equipment). The temporary nature of this classification also necessitates awareness of its specific duration and any potential expiration or modification.
