RE: USTR 2018-0025; Request for Exclusion From the Determination of Action Pursuant 

to Section 301: China's Acts, Policies, and Practices Related to Technology Transfer, 

Intellectual Property, and Innovation Tariff Under Harmonized Tariff Code 

(HTS) 8413.70.2004 

Dear Sir, 

This request for exclusion is submitted pursuant to Federal Register notice published on July 11, 

20181, establishing the process to submit exclusion requests from tariffs applied to U.S. imports 

according to the Determination of Action Pursuant to Section 301 of the Trade Act of 1974: China's 

Acts, Policies and Practices Related to Technology Transfer, Intellectual Property and Innovation. 

We hereby respectfully request that the water fountains imported by HoMedics USA LLC 

(HoMedics or the Company), under HTS code 8413.70.2004 be excluded from the additional 25% 

tariff imposed on this HTS code pursuant to Section 301. 

Explained below are the reasons why the water fountains meet the elements in the Federal 

Register notice to be excluded from the additional tariff under Section 301. 

1. Distinguished from other products in the 8 digit HTS code 

The subject water fountains are classified under HTS 8413.70.2004, "Other centrifugal pumps; 

Other; Submersible pumps." The 8 digit code is only for "Other centrifugal pumps; Other." 

Accordingly, the subject water fountains, models WFL-510 and WFL-510S0, differ from other 

water fountains in this general 8 digit classification as these fountains are submersible. These 

models are identical in dimensions, material composition, and functionality. They also have 

identical components. The products are decorative water fountains specifically designed for 

indoor, tabletop use. The products feature a ridged, stone-like orb with an illuminated opening for 

water to trickle down to a pebble-filled collection basin. They are powered by a durable electrical 

water pump that must be submerged to function properly and measure 10"Lx10"Wx7"H. The 

products are further distinguished from the 8 digit tariff description, as they include a unique 

design to mimic cascading waters and evoke a relaxing ambience. See Attachment A for a 

description of the lead model of the water fountains. 

2. Severe economic burden to HoMedics and U.S. interests 

These water fountains represent a highly profitable product line last imported around 2008, but 

HoMedics currently has plans to resume importing the water fountains in the near future. In fact, 

production is already in progress for the WFL-510 and WFL-510S0 models. To levy this large of 

an additional cost to the water fountain product models the Company plans to resume importing 

1 83 Fed. Reg. 32181 — 32184 (July 11, 2018).

PUBLIC VERSION 

translates to a substantial additional cost to HoMedics in material purchases on Chinese 

manufactured water fountains. This amount of additional spend on these imported products would 

drastically reduce HoMedics net income on the entire product offering for the entire period the 

tariffs are in effect. Even so, this future imported value represents an insignificant amount of the 

$50 billion in imported goods from China that the Section 301 tariffs are intended to address. 

Further, the additional tariffs would severely curtail the Company's ability to develop new 

products, source new customers, and maintain existing large volume customers. Eventually this 

would lead to reduction of the Companys [ ] and reduction in its overall company footprint to offset 

the tariff impact. A truly "American made company would suffer due to imposition of the additional 

tariffs. 

3. impact of Changing Sourcing to HoMedics 

As provided in the attached exclusion request form, similar water fountains can be sourced from 

the U.S. and other third countries such as South Korea, Thailand and Malaysia. However, there 

is a downtime and extreme additional monetary and resource cost in moving sourcing to suppliers 

in other countries. Primarily, the base cost of obtaining the water fountains from the new supplier 

will be an increased price relative to that HoMedics currently pays to its established supplier. In 

addition to this detrimental impact to the Company's bottom line, it would take HoMedics 

approximately [ ] to be able to institute a sourcing change. During this time, the Company would 

be required to pay the additional 25% tariff under Section 301 while working towards initiating and 

negotiating new supplier relationships. Further, achieving the goal of cementing new supplier 

relationships requires an additional expenditure of approximately [ ]. This expense would be an 

incremental cost over the additional tariff duties, and in addition to the higher price paid to the 

new suppliers to source the product models. 

There are other impediments and obstacles beyond these increased base costs to obtaining 

alternate sourcing of the products. The suppliers HoMedics currently source from are certified in 

U.S. Customs and Border Protection's CTPAT program (Customs Trade Partnership Against 

Terrorism), which is a key selling point to HoMedics and the companies it sells to. HoMedics 

would require that its new suppliers also be CTPAT certified, which is an additional burden in 

terms of cost, timing and resources from different departments to achieve that change. While 

HoMedics seeks to find new suppliers and obtain CTPAT certification for them, the Company 

could potentially lose customers during the changeover. Further, in addition to the additional time 

spent in reviewing new suppliers and negotiating new contracts, HoMedics would spend 

additional time and internal resources on conducting internal compliance audits with its new 

vendors to ensure they are adhering to the Companys strict quality assurance protocols and 

internal compliance controls. The monetary impact of the additional resources spent is difficult to 

quantify but places an additional burden on current U.S. employees for extended lengths of time 

and thus impairs the HoMedics model of productivity and efficiency to ensure the continued 

growth of this American company. 

4. Relevance to "Made in China 2025" program 

The water fountains manufactured by the Chinese factories are made according to longstanding, 

public knowledge and experience in this industry area. Accordingly, there is no forced transfer of

WWW_BRAUMILLERLAW.COM 
PUBLIC VERSION 

technology, which transfer is the focus of the Section 301 tariffs as discussed in the Section 301 

report from the USTR.2. 

Additionally, the residential water fountain industry is not an advanced manufacturing area. The 

water fountains are not one of the ten industries which are the focus of the "2025" program. 

Rather, these industries include: 

(1) advanced information technology; (2) robotics and automated machine tools; 

(3) aircraft and aircraft components; (4) maritime vessels and marine engineering equipment; (5) 

advanced rail equipment; (6) new energy vehicles; (7) electrical generation and transmission 

equipment; (8) agricultural machinery and equipment; (9) new materials; and (10) 

pharmaceuticals and advanced medical devices. 

There is accordingly no direct link between these relatively low volume imports of water fountains, 

and the goals of the Section 301 tariffs to address the targeted industries in the "China 2025" 

program. 

Additionally, there is no joint venture between HoMedics and its Chinese suppliers. HoMedics' 

business relationship is not subject to any Chinese administrative policies which require the 

transfer of any U.S. intellectual property in any manner. Thus, penalizing a U.S. company where 

U.S. intellectual rights are not at risk by forcing it to pay additional duties does not further the U.S. 

government's policy regarding the "Made in China" initiative. In fact, the relationship between the 

Section 301 tariff goals and the actual impact in this instance is nonexistent. Applying the Section 

301 tariff to the imports of the water fountains by HoMedics does not serve the purpose of the 

Section 301 goals but in fact contravenes the goals. 

In light of the above, HoMedics sincerely requests that its water fountain models WFL-510 and 

WFL-510S0 be granted an exclusion of the 25% Section 301 tariff. Importation of these product 

models does not undermine the U.S. government policy toward the "Made in China 2025" program 

and would only be detrimental to the economic viability of this moderate sized U.S. company. The 

submitter certifies that information provided is complete and correct to the best of his or her 

knowledge.

HOW TO USE 

Instructions 

1. Familiarize yourself with the pump. The switch located at the 

front of the pump controls the pump speed. The speed is 

indicated by a plus 0-) and minus (-) sign. To increase the 

speed, move the switch slowly to the left in the direction of 

the plus sign. At its highest speed level, the switch will cease 

to move any farther. To decrease the pump speed for less 

water flow, move the switch to the right toward the minus 

sign. Similarly, at its lowest speed, the switch will cease to 

move any farther. 

2. Connect the male and female parts of the LED light 

connector and twist cap tightly. 

3. insert the tube into the pump. 

4. Keep the water filled to the suggested level at all times for 

optimum performance. 

5. Set the fountain top onto the base. 

6. Rinse rocks with water. Arrange the rocks on the platform. 

7. Attach the AC adapter jack to the base power cord. 

DO NOT plug into an outlet at this time. 

8. Set the fountain on a level, waterproof surface. To help the 

water flow evenly over the entire surface, wipe water over 

the entire fountain top with your hand before plugging in. 

9. Plug the cord into a 120V household outlet. The switch 

located on the power cord controls the fountain. lf the 

pump doesn't operate, click the power button once to turn 

the fountain on and again to turn it off. 

NOTE: Ensure that the electrical cord loops below the 

electrical outlet to form a "drip loop." This will prevent water 

from running down the cord into the electrical outlet. 

10. For best results, please operate with the pump completely 

submerged. Keep the water level at the fill line at all times. 

TO CLEAN 

1. To clean the pump: Unplug from electrical outlet. Use a 

small brush or stream of water to remove any debris. 

2. To keep the water clean: Periodically change the water 

and clean the product according to the water condition. 

Over time, fountain water and the fountain itself become 

dirty. We suggest cleaning and exchanging water weekly 

to increase the longevity of the fountain. 

3. To clean off hard water deposits on the base: Soak the base 

in a mixture of vinegar and water to clean and remove any 

mineral buildup. 

4. Keep water at an optimum level: Add water periodically to 

keep it at an optimum level and to avoid shortening the life 

of the pump. Never let the pump run dry. 

5. Fountain storage: Unplug the fountain from the electrical 

outlet, empty the water, dry the fountain, and store rocks 

and fountain in a cool, dry place.

WHEN USING ELECTRICAL PRODUCTS, ESPECIALLY WHEN 

CHILDREN ARE PRESENT, BASIC SAFETY PRECAUTIONS 

SHOULD ALWAYS BE FOLLOWED, INCLUDING THE 

FOLLOWING: 

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING. 

• Always place fountain on a firm, flat surface. Due to 

the imperfect edges that are inherent to our natural 

stone fountains, water may splash outside the base 

of the unit. Therefore, we strongly recommend that 

you place your fountain and fountain parts on a 

waterproof surface or that you cover the surface 

with a waterproof barrier. 

• DO NOT place on any surface that can be damaged 

by water. 

• DO NOT reach for a unit that has fallen into water. 

Unplug it immediately. 

• DO NOT place or drop into water or other liquids. 

• DO NOT use water above 86°F. 

• Use this unit only for its intended purpose as described 

in this document, the Quick-Start Guide and User 

Guide. 

• DO NOT use attachments not recommended by 

MIRRA or HoMedics; specifically, any attachments 

not provided with this unit. 

• NEVER drop or insert any object into any opening. 

• DO NOT place the fountain near heat sources, such 

as a stove. 

• Always keep the cord away from high temperature 

and fire. 

• To disconnect, turn all controls to the off position, 

then remove the plug from the outlet. 

• DO NOT use outdoors. For indoor use only. 

• Never cover the unit while it is operating. 

• Perform regular maintenance on the fountain. 

• Never use detergent to clean the fountain. 

• Never clean the fountain by scraping with a hard 

object. 

• DO NOT attempt to adjust or repair the unit. Servicing 

must be performed by professional, qualified 

personnel. 

• Stop using this unit if there is an unusual noise or smell. 

• Unplug this unit when not in use for a long period of 

time. 

• DO NOT clean, adjust, or move the fountain, or 

place hands into the water of the fountain without 

first unplugging it from the electrical outlet. 

• Keep this unit out of reach of children. 

• Never let the pump run dry, as this will shorten the life 

of the pump. 

• Operate pump completely submerged for proper 

cooling. 

• To ensure quiet operation of pump, you must rinse 

off all surfaces of your fountain, including the rocks 

(if provided with your model) before using the first 

time. Any dirt or residue that remains on the fountain 

surface may obstruct the water flow through your 

pump, thereby causing unnecessary noise. 

• DO NOT carry this appliance by the power cord or 

use the cord as a handle. 

• Operate with tap or distilled water. 

• The pump must be completely submerged in water. 

If the pump is making noises, most likely it is not 

completely submerged in water. 

• The electric cord of this product cannot be replaced. 

If it sustains damages, you must stop using the 

product immediately and contact MIRRA Consumer 

Relations (see Warranty section for Consumer 

Relations contact information).

ANNEAU 

D'ECOULEMENT 

COMMENT UTILISER 

Instructions 

1. Familiarisez-vous avec la pompe. La commande située 

l'avant de la pompe contrôle la vitesse de la pompe. La 

vitesse est indiquée par un signe plus (+) et moins H. Pour 

augmenter la vitesse, déplacez la commande lentement 

vers la gauche en direction du signe plus. La commande 

arrête de bouger lorsque la vitesse maximum est atteinte. 

Pour diminuer la vitesse de la pompe pour réduire 

l'écoulement de l'eau, déplacez la commande vers la 

droite vers le signe moins. De même, la commande arrête 

de bouger lorsque la vitesse minimum est atteinte. 

2. Connectez les parties male et femelle du connecteur de 

l'ampoule à DEL et serrez bien le bouchon. 

3. lnsérez le tube dans la pompe. 

4. Veillez à ce que le niveau d'eau soit constamment au 

niveau suggéré pour garantir une performance optimale. 

5. Placez la partie supérieure de la fontaine sur la base. 

6. Rincer les cailloux avec de l'eau. Disposez les cailloux sur la 

plateforme. 

7. Raccordez l'adaptateur secteur au cordon d'alimentation. 

NE BRANCHEZ PAS sur la prise à ce stade. 

8. Placez la fontaine sur une surface à niveau et imperméable. 

Pour faciliter l'écoulement de l'eau sur toute la surface, 

étaler un peu d'eau sur toute la partie supérieure de la 

fontaine avec la main avant d' effectuer le branchement. 

9. Branchez le cordon dans une prise résidentielle de 120 V. 

La commande située sur le cordon d'alimentation contrôle 

la fontaine. Si la pompe ne fonctionne pas, cliquez une 

fois sur le bouton d'alimentation pour mettre la fontaine en 

marche et une fois de plus pour l'éteindre. 

REMARQUE : Assurez-vous que le cordon électrique forme 

une boucle sous la prise électrique pour former un « anneau 

d'écoulement ». Cela permettra d'empêcher l'eau de 

couler sur le cordon dans la prise électrique. 

10. Pour de meilleurs resultats, veuillez actionner la fontaine 

avec la pompe complitement lmmergée. Veillez 

maintenir le niveau d'eau à la ligne de remplissage en 

permanence. 

NETTOYER 

1. Pour nettoyer la pompe: Débranchez de la prise électrique. 

Utilisez une petite brosse ou un jet d'eau pour enlever les 

débris, 

2. Pour garder l'eau propre : Remplacez l'eau régulièrement 

et nettoyez la fontaine en fonction de l'état de propreté 

de l'eau. L'eau des fontaines et la fontaine elle-même 

deviennent sales. Nous suggérons de nettoyer et 

d'échanger de l'eau chaque semaine pour augmenter la 

longévité de la fontaine. 

3. Pour nettoyer les dépôts d'eau dure sur la base : Faites 

tremper la base dans un mélange de vinaigre et d'eau 

pour nettoyer et enlever toute accumulation de minéraux. 

4. Gardez l'eau à un niveau optimal : Ajoutez régulièrement 

de l'eau pour maintenir l'eau à un niveau optimal pour 

éviter de réduire la durée de vie de la pompe, Ne laissez 

jamais la pompe fonctionner al sec. 

5. Rangement de fontaine: Débranchez la fontaine de la prise 

électrique, videz l'eau, séchez la fontaine et stockez les 

pierres et la fontaine dans un endroit sec et frais.

• Ne jamais laisser la pompe fonctionner à sec, car 

cela risquerait de réduire la durée de vie de la 

pompe. 

• Actionner la pompe completement immergée pour 

assurer un bon refroidissement. 

• Pour garantir un fonctionnement silencieux de la 

pompe, toutes les surfaces de la fontaine, y compris 

les rochers (si fournis avec le modele en question), 

doivent etre rincées avant l'utilisation initiale. Toute 

saleté ou tout résidu qui demeure sur la surface de la 

fontaine peut obstruer le debit d'eau de la pompe, 

provoquant ainsi un bruit inutile. 

• NE PAS transporter l'appareil par le cordon 

d'alimentation ni utiliser le cordon d'alimentation 

comme une poignée. 

• Utiliser avec de l'eau du robinet ou de l'eau distillée. 

• La pompe doit être complètement immergée 

dans l'eau. Si la pompe fait du bruit, elle n'est 

probablement pas completement immergée dans 

l' ea u . 

• Le cordon électrique de ce produit ne peut pas etre 

remplacé. Si le cordon subit des dommages, cesser 

immédiatement d'utiliser ce produit et contacter 

le service à la clientele de MIRRA (voir la section

Instrucciones 

1. Familiaricese con la bomba. El interruptor colocado al 

frente de la bomba controla la velocidad de la misma. La 

velocidad se indica por un signo de mds (+) y uno de menos 

(-). Para incrementar la velocidad, mueva el interruptor 

lentamente hacia la izquierda en la dirección al signo de 

más. Al alcanzar la mayor velocidad posible, el interruptor 

dejard de moverse. Para reducir la velocidad de la bomba 

para un menor flujo de agua, mueva el interruptor hacia la 

derecha hacia el signo de menos. lgualmente, al alcanzar 

la menor velocidad posible, el interruptor dejard de 

moverse. 

2. Conecte las partes macho y hembra del conector de luz 

LED, y gire la tapa firmemente. 

3. lnserte el tubo en la bomba. 

4. Mantenga el agua llena hasta el nivel sugerido en todo 

momento para un rendimiento 6ptimo. 

5. Coloque la parte superior de la fuente sobre la base. 

6. Enjuague las rocas con agua. Coloque las rocas sabre la 

plataforma. 

7. Conecte el adaptador de CA al cable de corriente de 

la base. NO lo conecte a la corriente eléctrica en este 

momento. 

8. Coloque la fuente en una superficie nivelada y a prueba 

de agua. Para ayudar a que el agua fluya uniformemente 

en toda la superficie, limpie el agua sobre toda la fuente 

con su mano antes de enchufarla. 

9. Conecte el cable a un tomacorriente de 120 voltios. El 

interruptor ubicado en el cable de corriente controla 

la fuente. Si la Pomba no opera, presione el botón de 

encendido una vez para encender la fuente y una vez mds 

para apagarla. 

NOTA: Asegúrese de que el cable eléctrico se curve por 

debajo de la toma de corriente para formar un "bucle". 

Esto evitard que el agua pueda correr por el cable hacia la 

toma de corriente. 

10. Para obtener mejores resultados, opere con la bomba 

completamente sumergida. Mantenga siempre el nivel del 

agua en la linea de Ilenado. 

LIMPIAR 

1. Para limpiar la bomba: Desenchufe de la toma de corriente. 

Use un cepillo pequeno o una corriente de agua para 

eliminar cualquier residuo. 

2. Para mantener el agua limpia: Cambie el agua y limpie 

el producto periódicamente de acuerdo a la condición 

del agua. Las fuentes de agua de las horas extras y la 

fuente se ensucian. Sugerimos limpiar e intercambiar agua 

semanalmente para aumentar la longevidad de la fuente. 

3. Para limpiar los depósitos de agua dura en la base: Remoje 

la base con una mezcla de vinagre y agua para limpiar y 

retirar cualquier depósito de minerales. 

4. Mantenga el agua a un nivel Optima: Allada agua 

periódicamente para mantenerlo en un nivel 6ptimo y 

para evitar acortar el tiempo de vida de la bomba. Nunca 

permita que la bomba trabaje sin agua. 

5. Almacenamiento de la fuente: Desenchufe la fuente de la 

toma de corriente, vacie el agua, segue la fuente y guarde 

las rocas y la fuente en un lugar fresco y seco.

AL USAR PRODUCTOS ELECTRICOS, ESPECIALMENTE 

CUANDO HAY NAOS PRESENTES, SE DEBEN SEGUIR 

SIEMPRE PRECAUCIONES BASICAS DE SEGURIDAD, 

INCLUIDAS LAS SIGUIENTES: 

LEA TODAS LAS INSTRUCCIONES ANTES DE USARLO. 

• Ponga siempre la fuente en una superficie firme y 

plana. Debido a los bordes imperfectos inherentes 

a nuestras fuentes de piedra natural, el agua podria 

salpicar afuera de la base de la unidad. Por lo 

tanto, le recomendamos que coloque su fuente y 

las partes de la fuente sobre una superficie a prueba 

de agua o que cubra la superficie con una barrera 

a prueba de agua. 

• NO la coloque sobre alguna superficie que pueda 

ser danada por el agua. 

• NO intente agarrar una unidad que haya caido en 

el agua. Desenchúfela inmediatamente. 

• NO la ponga ni la deje caer en agua o en otros 

liquidos. 

• NO use agua con temperatura superior a 30°C (86°F). 

• Utilice esta unidad solo para el uso previsto que se 

describe en este documento, en la guia de inicio 

rapido y en la guia del usuario. 

• NO utilice accesorios no recomendados por MIRRA 

o HoMedics; en especial, accesorios no provistos 

con esta unidad. 

• NUNCA deje caer ni inserte ningún objeto en 

ninguna abertura. 

• NO coloque el difusor cerca de fuentes de calor, 

como por ejemplo una estufa. 

• Siempre mantenga el cable alejado de las altas 

temperaturas y del fuego. 

• Para desconectarla, ponga todos los controles en la 

posición de apagado "off", y a continuación, quite 

el enchufe del tomacorriente. 

• NO lo utilice en exteriores. Para uso en interiores 

únicamente. 

• Nunca cubra la unidad mientras se encuentre en 

funcionamiento. 

• Lleve a cabo el mantenimiento regular de la fuente. 

• Nunca use detergente para limpiar la fuente. 

• Nunca limpie la fuente raspandola con un objeto 

duro. 

• NO trate de ajustar ni de reparar la unidad. El 

mantenimiento debe ser realizado por personal 

profesional y calificado. 

• Deje de usar esta unidad si hay un ruido o un olor 

extra no. 

• Desenchufe la unidad cuando no esté en uso 

durante un largo periodo de tiempo. 

• NO limpie, ajuste o mueva la fuente, ni coloque 

las manos en el agua de la fuente sin primero 

desconectarla del tomacorriente. 

• Mantenga esta unidad fuera del alcance de los 

ninos. 

• Nunca deje que la bomba funcione estando seca, 

ya que esto acortaria la vida UN de la bomba. 

• Opere la bomba completamente sumergida para 

un enfriamiento adecuado. 

• Para asegurar la operación silenciosa de la bomba, 

debe enjuagar todas las superficies de su fuente, 

incluyendo las rocas (si vienen incluidas con su 

modelo) antes de usarla por primera vez. Cualquier 

suciedad o residuo que permanezca en la superficie 

de la fuente podria obstruir el flujo de agua que 

pasa por la bomba, causando asi ruido innecesario. 

• NO traslade este aparato jalandolo del cable de 

alimentación, ni utilice el cable de alimentación 

como asa. 

• Opere con agua destilada o de la Ilave. 

• La bomba debe estar completamente sumergida 

en el agua. Si la bomba esta haciendo ruido, lo más 

probable es que no esté completamente sumergida 

en el agua. 

• El cable de electricidad de este producto no 

puede ser reemplazado. Si se dana el cable, debe 

suspender el uso de este producto de inmediato, y 

ponerse en contacto con Relaciones con el cliente
