1.  In administering the provisions of this
chapter, the Department shall calculate the amount of tax imposed on the retail
sale of large appliances as follows:
(a) If the large appliance is sold separately or
with installation or replacement services, or any combination thereof, the
sales tax must be applied to the retail sales price of the large appliance to
the customer. The sales tax does not apply to charges for or associated with
installation and replacement if those charges are stated separately on the
sales receipt or in the contract of sale.
(b) If the large appliance is sold as a
constituent part of a contract for the construction or refurbishment of an
improvement to real property or a mobile home, the sales tax must be paid by
the contractor on the sales price of the large appliance to the contractor.

refurbishment of an improvement to real property” means a contract for
erecting, constructing or affixing a structure or other improvement to real
property or a mobile home, including the remodeling, altering or repairing of
an improvement to real property or a mobile home. The term does not include the
sale, delivery, installation or replacement of one or more large appliances not
included in a contract for erecting, constructing or affixing a structure or
other improvement to real property or a mobile home.
(b) “Large appliance” includes, without
limitation, a washing machine, dryer, range, stove, oven, dishwasher,
refrigerator, freezer, ice maker and hot water dispenser.
(c) “Replacement” means the removal of an old
large appliance and the installation of a new large appliance.
