NIGP 04585: Vent Kits, Household Laundry Dryer

NIGP 04585 Vent Kits, Household Laundry Dryer is an Item code under which state and local governments procure dryer duct maintenance, repair, and cleaning services alongside laundry equipment components for custodial and facilities operations. Recent solicitations show demand for both physical dryer vent components (as part of broader custodial supply catalogs) and specialized maintenance services—including routine inspection, cleaning, preventive maintenance programs, and duct repair or replacement—across county facilities, shelters, correctional facilities, and navigation centers. Issuing bodies span regional purchasing cooperatives, county departments of public works, and special-purpose service cooperatives managing multi-jurisdictional contracts. The Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative (Texas) is soliciting a custodial supplies catalog discount bid that includes dryer vent components among other facility maintenance products; the contract runs through June 18, 2028, with an estimated total expenditure of $12,638,478.00 across member organizations.

Geographic activity centers in Texas and the Pacific Northwest. The County of San Mateo, California, issued an RFP (2026RFP00238) for Dryer Duct Maintenance and Repair Services with a May 22, 2026 response deadline, seeking a single contractor to provide routine maintenance, cleaning, repair, and preventive maintenance programs across county-maintained facilities for an aggregate obligation not to exceed $375,000 over five years. Sourcewell, a Minnesota local government cooperative, is procuring Law Enforcement Equipment (RFP #061626, due June 16, 2026) for participating entities across multiple states; while this opportunity spans a broader commodity scope than dryer vents alone, it signals multi-state cooperative purchasing infrastructure through which NIGP 04585 components and services reach diverse public-sector buyers. Qualifying contractors for the San Mateo work must hold four years of relevant experience, California-required certifications (CSIA or NADCA), $1 million in general liability and professional liability insurance, and demonstrate prevailing wage compliance. The County applies local-business procurement preferences and retains authority to reject proposals or terminate with thirty days' notice.
