The Department of the Interior Fish and Wildlife Service awarded a purchase order to Xenturis LLC for $51,100 on September 25, 2026, under a total small business set-aside to replace HVAC systems at Great Meadows National Wildlife Refuge in Sudbury, Massachusetts.
The scope includes removal and replacement of two air handler/gas furnace units and two outdoor condensing units serving two residential apartments. New systems must be high-efficiency, Energy Star-compliant with minimum SEER 15 rating, and include digital programmable thermostats, NADCA-certified ductwork cleaning, MERV 13 filters, and air balancing. All work must comply with International Mechanical Code, local building codes, and applicable standards. The contractor provides one-year installation coverage and confirms manufacturer minimum five-year compressor warranty. Performance runs through December 30, 2026. The underlying solicitation (posted July 29, due August 18) required a licensed Massachusetts mechanical contractor with a shop within 60 miles of the site and only licensed, certified workers. Evaluation weighted technical capabilities and past performance more heavily than price.
