UNSPSC 20101803: Boom bolters

UNSPSC 20101803 Boom bolters, a Commodity code, encompasses equipment and services for gas extraction and refrigerant recovery from appliances and HVAC units, as evidenced by current state and local solicitations. State and local governments procure under this code primarily for environmental compliance and asset recovery at municipal facilities, particularly sustainability campuses and service centers. The work involves EPA-certified refrigerant reclamation, including extraction, documentation of gas destruction or recycling, and compliance with environmental regulations. Issuing bodies soliciting under the code include municipal environmental departments and general services divisions responsible for managing collected appliances and equipment disposal.

The City of Tucson Environmental and General Services Division posted RFP No. 240011 in September 2026 for gas extraction and removal services at the Los Reales Sustainability Campus. The procurement calls for an EPA-certified refrigerant reclaimer to extract gases from approximately 50 units per week at minimum bi-weekly intervals, with a one-year initial term and up to four additional one-year renewal options. Evaluation criteria focus on technical capabilities, EPA compliance, certified technicians, use of EPA-approved recovery equipment, and ability to provide detailed documentation of gas recovery and destruction. The RFP includes tiered pricing for Freon, mixed gas, and refrigerant extraction with separate labor rates for standard, after-hours, and holiday work. The contract references Federal Transit Administration terms and conditions, which typically incorporate disadvantaged business enterprise participation provisions. Pre-submittal conference was held March 19, 2024; final proposals were due September 19, 2024.
