HS Code 8415.82 – Air conditioning machines; containing a motor driven fan, other than window or wall types, incorporating a refrigerating unit
HS code 8415.82 is the 6-digit subheading for air conditioning machines, containing a motor driven fan, other than window or wall types, incorporating a refrigerating unit. It is used for packaged rooftop units, central air conditioning units, chiller units (integrated with fan for air conditioning), commercial split systems and data center cooling units.
What HS 8415.82 covers
This HS code covers air conditioning machines, other than window or wall types, that incorporate a refrigerating unit but do not have a valve for reversing the cooling/heat cycle (i.e., they primarily cool). These units are typically used for larger spaces in commercial buildings, offices, retail establishments, and industrial facilities. Trade is driven by commercial construction, infrastructure development, and the need for controlled environments in various industries. Major importers include rapidly urbanizing economies and countries with significant commercial real estate. Exporters are often global HVAC system manufacturers. The market focuses on capacity, energy efficiency for large-scale operations, and integration into building management systems, making them critical for modern commercial infrastructure.

How these figures are built
109 countries reported 2025 trade to UN Comtrade in HS 2022, and their own totals are used. Countries that did not report are estimated from what other countries recorded trading with them. Those estimates miss trade with other non-reporting countries, so they can be low, and a non-reporting country can rank higher than shown or be missing from the list. World totals add both and leave out trade between two non-reporting countries. Figures are in current US dollars; reported imports are mostly valued CIF and exports FOB, and exports include re-exports. The UN Comtrade links show the underlying records; they can also list a few reporters left out here (regional groups and older HS editions).
