UNSPSC 26101111: Pressure washer motor AC

A type of motor designed for use in pressure washers and steam cleaners.

UNSPSC 26101111 Pressure washer motor AC (Commodity) covers electric-drive pressure washing equipment and related maintenance services that state and local governments acquire for facility and fleet cleaning operations. Recent state and local solicitations under this code reflect two distinct procurement patterns: routine maintenance and parts replacement for existing pressure washer fleets, and capital replacement of aging or worn equipment with new machines and associated electrical or plumbing infrastructure. The Commodity encompasses both the motors themselves and the full system components—hoses, reels, electrical conduit, and control systems—that state transportation departments and municipal facilities management offices source to keep pressure washing operations running.

State transportation departments (Caltrans in California) and municipal agencies (City of Santa Rosa, Caltrans District 7 in Los Angeles County) dominate recent activity under this code. Caltrans issued an Invitation for Bid (IFB) on March 3, 2026, for power wash machine replacement at the Whittier Maintenance Station in Los Angeles County, with bids due March 17, 2026, and a maximum bid cap of $461,000; the scope included removal and replacement of one existing pressure washer (Model VHG4-2200 Landa 6.2 horsepower 230V 1ph NG), hose reels, hoses, and adjacent electrical and plumbing systems, with the contract term running April 15, 2026, through April 14, 2027. On May 12, 2026, Caltrans also issued an IFB for preventable maintenance, repair, and parts replacement for pressure washers, wash water recycle systems, wastewater evaporators, and brine systems at the South Lake Tahoe Maintenance Station in El Dorado County, California, with bids due May 28, 2026, and a not-to-exceed bid proposal of $484,000 over an approximately two-year term. The California Department of Motor Vehicles solicited property sweeping and pressure washing services at the Santa Rosa DMV Field Office under a small-business-set-aside IFB (25-238) with an estimated total contract cost of $106,596.00 for a thirty-six-month term and bids due February 17, 2026. Activity concentrates in California; geographic spread beyond that region is not supported by the recent opportunities block.
