UNSPSC 20121430: Twin flow assemblies

UNSPSC 20121430 Twin flow assemblies is a Commodity code that captures refrigerant and gas extraction, reclamation, and removal services procured by state and local governments to manage controlled substances from appliances, HVAC systems, and other equipment. State and local issuing bodies under this code include municipal environmental departments, counties, and cooperative purchasing vehicles serving multi-jurisdictional public entities. The work being solicited involves EPA-certified refrigerant reclaimers who extract, document, and dispose of or recycle refrigerants, Freon, mixed gases, and other controlled substances from collected or in-service equipment, with technicians required to hold EPA certifications and maintain comprehensive recovery and destruction records. Contracts typically include flexible pricing structures with line items for different gas types and service times (standard hours, after-hours, holiday rates) and may span one year with renewal options.

Recent activity shows the City of Tucson Environmental and General Services Division issuing RFP No. 240011 for Gas Extraction and Removal services at the Los Reales Sustainability Campus with a pre-submittal conference on March 19, 2024 and proposals due September 19, 2024. Sourcewell, a Minnesota cooperative purchasing vehicle serving participating jurisdictions including Franklin County, Grant County, Grays Harbor County, Chelan County, and Yakima County in Washington state, issued RFP #061626 for Law Enforcement Equipment with a June 16, 2026 deadline—though the law enforcement equipment solicitation appears tangential to the twin flow assemblies code nominal scope and may represent a coding mismatch. Activity concentrates in Arizona and Washington, with the Tucson opportunity reflecting direct municipal procurement and the Sourcewell RFP representing cooperative purchasing available to thousands of governmental and public entities across the United States and Canada.
