UNSPSC 40101701: Air conditioners

UNSPSC 40101701 Air conditioners is a Commodity code encompassing packaged and split-system cooling units, replacement and upgrade installations, and HVAC component supply across state agencies, county facilities, municipal departments, school districts, and specialized institutions including correctional facilities, transit authorities, and libraries. State and local governments currently procure air conditioning units through a mix of equipment replacement, facility modernization, and on-demand parts supply — solicitations reflect everything from single-unit police station AC replacements to multi-building campus chiller plant upgrades and standardized inventory programs serving school districts and county operations.

Recent activity spans multiple issuing bodies and jurisdiction types. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice and Williamson County (Texas) account for several concurrent solicitations; Texas Health and Human Services Commission, the Florida Department of Transportation, Houston Independent School District, Hall County (Georgia), Clark County School District (Nevada), Hillsborough County (Florida), the City of Austin, and the City of South Daytona each posted one or two opportunities in the past six months. Geographic concentration is heaviest in Texas, with secondary activity in Florida, Georgia, Nevada, Oregon, California, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, and Mississippi. A representative sample includes the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB for a blanket order of refrigerants, blower motors, compressors, and a portable air conditioner to Austin State Supported Living Center, estimated at $50,000 for one year (responses due July 28, 2026); Houston Independent School District's RFP for complete HVAC chiller replacement at three high schools and an elementary school, with site visits in July 2026 and proposals due July 29, 2026; the Oregon Military Department's ITB for comprehensive HVAC repairs and replacements across thirteen buildings at Portland Air National Guard Base, with a pre-bid conference required for bid eligibility (bid closing May 5, 2026); and Hall County, Georgia's RFQ for multiple on-call HVAC contractors providing installation, repair, and maintenance services on an as-needed basis (qualifications due April 30, 2026). Solicitations range from straightforward equipment supply and delivery to full turnkey installation, startup, commissioning, training, and extended warranty scopes; prevailing wage, bonding, insurance, and Davis-Bacon compliance appear frequently in larger construction-phase projects.
