Dear Mr. Forbes:
In your letter dated December 11, 2017 on behalf of Innergy Tech Inc you requested a tariff classification ruling. Descriptive literature and drawings were included in your submission.
The Hoval SV Heat Exchanger is described as an air to air heat exchanger. The unit is used in HVAC units installed in industrial and commercial buildings and its function is to heat and cool fresh air. The unit is cube shaped and consists of aluminum plates. The surface of each aluminum plate is specifically configured to allow the transfer of heat energy from the unit’s warm side to its cool side.
The applicable subheading for Hoval SV Heat Exchanger will be 8419.50.1000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS), which provides for Machinery, plant or laboratory equipment, whether or not electrically heated (excluding furnaces, ovens and other equipment of heading 8514), for the treatment of materials by a process involving a change of temperature;…brazed aluminum plate-fin heat exchangers. The rate of duty will be 4.2 percent ad valorem.
Duty rates are provided for your convenience and are subject to change. The text of the most recent HTSUS and the accompanying duty rates are provided on the World Wide Web at https://hts.usitc.gov/current.
This ruling is being issued under the provisions of Part 177 of the Customs Regulations (19 C.F.R. 177).
