UNSPSC 20121718: Overshot control

Lever for adjusting an overshot grapple.

UNSPSC 20121718 Overshot control, a Commodity code, encompasses refrigerant recovery and gas extraction services for appliances and equipment at municipal sustainability facilities and similar operations. State and local governments buy specialized EPA-certified refrigerant reclamation under this code — extraction, documentation, and destruction or recycling of refrigerants recovered from appliances and HVAC systems collected at municipal campuses. The issuing bodies include city environmental divisions and regional cooperative purchasing authorities acting on behalf of multiple counties and public entities.

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, seeking an EPA-certified refrigerant reclaimer to extract gases from approximately 50 units per week with extraction required at minimum every two weeks and documentation of gas destruction or recycling; the pre-submittal conference was scheduled for March 19, 2024, with proposals due September 19, 2024. A separate RFP issued by Sourcewell (a Minnesota local government unit cooperative) in May 2026 under RFP #061626 for Law Enforcement Equipment suggests the code may capture mixed or mislabeled procurement activity — this opportunity appears unrelated to refrigerant recovery or gas extraction services. Recent activity clusters in Arizona, with Pima County and the City of Tucson representing the primary identified jurisdiction pursuing work under the code's actual scope.
