U.S. imports of compressors for refrigerating & air-conditioning equipment (HS 841430) totaled $233.9M in April 2026, traded with 44 countries.
Importers of Compressors for Refrigerating & Air-Conditioning Equipment paid $20.9M in duties in April 2026 — an effective duty rate of 17% on $119.7M in dutiable value, based on actual customs collections rather than the published tariff schedule. Compressors for Refrigerating & Air-Conditioning Equipment imports of $233.9M in April 2026 ran 13% above the year-to-date monthly average of $206.3M.
Last updated: April 2026 dataRefrigeration and air-conditioning compressors are a foundational input for HVAC, commercial refrigeration, and automotive climate-control systems, and the US tariff schedule subdivides them by horsepower rating, refrigerant type (ammonia versus non-ammonia), and vehicle versus stationary application. Mexico is the leading supplier — reflecting deep USMCA-integrated manufacturing in the HVAC supply chain — followed by Japan and South Korea. Screw-type compressors have dedicated lines (8414308010, 8414308020) split at 200 HP, while automotive compressors (8414308030) are separately identified, making correct classification dependent on both the compressor's mechanical design and its intended installation environment.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
The US schedule provides a dedicated line for compressors designed for motor vehicles (8414308030). If a compressor is specifically engineered and marketed for automotive use — with appropriate mounting provisions, refrigerant compatibility, and belt-drive or electric-drive configuration — it should classify there. Dual-use units require a review of the manufacturer's design intent and primary application; a licensed customs broker can assist with a binding ruling request if the classification is genuinely ambiguous.
Ammonia-based refrigeration systems are used primarily in large industrial cold storage, food processing, and chemical plants rather than in commercial HVAC or consumer appliances. The dedicated ammonia compressor line (8414308090) separates these industrial units from the horsepower-bracketed lines covering HFC/HFO and other non-ammonia refrigerant compressors, allowing more precise trade monitoring of industrial refrigeration equipment.
