Industry Code: 30700
This is a manufacturing industry intended for those employers who produce an assortment of forced air equipment. This equipment includes replacement air or make-up units, refrigeration and air conditioning units, burners, heaters, and furnaces.
These operations would sell their product to employers who install the product (along with related products).
Operation Details:
This classification involves cutting, forming, assembly, and painting to produce housing units. The housing for this equipment is often made up of light gauge steel or aluminum and may require some riveting or occasional spot welding. Various electrical and mechanical components are installed to produce an assortment of forced air equipment. These units vary in size from small household units to large commercial units seen on building tops.
Manufacturing grills for heaters and air conditioners is included here, as is the manufacturing of radiator cores.
Underwriting Considerations:
This classification does not include installation. The installation of force air systems is to be included under industry 42117.
Industry Custom Pricing: Waiving Cost Relief Option and Modified Experience Rating
This industry has chosen to participate in Industry Custom Pricing. Effective January 1, 2009, employers in this industry participate in the Waiving Cost Relief option and effective January 1, 2017, employers are also participating in the Modified Experience Rating option.
Under the Waiving Cost Relief option, costs related to the aggravation of a pre-existing condition will not be removed from the experience record of employers classified in this industry. In return, the portion of premiums collected to fund retroactive cost relief has been removed from the industry rate, resulting in a reduction in WCB premium rates for the industry.
With Modified Experience Rating option, the following experience rating features will be used in determining the premium rate for employers in the Large Employer Experience Rating Plan:
- Maximum discount or surcharge of 60%
- Participation rate of 1% for every $2000 in premiums
- Maximum participation of 100%
- Maximum experience used of 100%

Rate Group History:
This industry joined its current rate group in January of 1994. Many light manufacturing industries concerned with sheet metal type products were consolidated under the one rate group. These industries displayed significant crossover of activities, processes and products. Over time, the consolidated industries became redundant and now this rate group has only three industries to accommodate light manufacturing involving sheet metal.
