UNSPSC 40101604: Fans

UNSPSC 40101604 Fans, a Commodity code, encompasses industrial, commercial, and facility cooling and ventilation fans that state and local governments procure for infrastructure, wastewater treatment, emergency management, and building systems. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers purchasing everything from roof-mounted exhaust fans for maintenance facilities to large-scale industrial cooling systems for water treatment plants, misting fans for emergency shelters, and centrifugal fans for odor control at wastewater facilities. The issuing-body mix spans municipal water districts, city public works departments, county emergency management, state departments of agriculture and public safety, fire-rescue operations, and specialized water authorities across multiple states and jurisdictions.
