The product is an outdoor bath installation called a 'n aquatics spa', made of ABS plastic, measuring approximately 420 × 225 × 127 cm, with a net weight of 800 kg and a volume of 5,000 liters. It includes a graduated tank with 6 massage seats equipped with 36 massage jets, as well as a swimming zone of about 3 meters for one person, fitted with 4 high-power jet nozzles allowing counter-current swimming. The installation incorporates several components: massage pumps, heating system, filtration (including ozone filtration chamber), air regulator, LED lighting, full insulation, and wood cladding. This product is designed to combine the functions of a hydromassage device and a swimming pool for swimming and aquatic physical activities. According to the General Rules of Interpretation (GRI 1, 3c, 6) and the Explanatory Notes, it is a composite article within the meaning of GRI 3b, combining a hydromassage device (heading 9019) and a pool/baby pool (heading 9506). As the essential character cannot be determined, classification is made by the higher numerical heading, which is heading 9506, as a pool. The applicable Combined Nomenclature (CN) code is therefore 9506 99 90, corresponding to pools. This classification is justified by the dual function of the product and the equal prominence of the hydromassage and pool elements.
