UNSPSC 40101719: Liquid refrigerant receiver

A device that stores liquid refrigerants condensed from the refrigeration cycle from the condenser and the evaporator.

UNSPSC 40101719 Liquid refrigerant receiver, a Commodity code, encompasses refrigerant storage and handling components that state and local governments procure as part of HVAC system maintenance, repair, and replacement work. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers using this code nominally while actually purchasing broader HVAC equipment bundles, refrigerant supplies, and system components—the liquid refrigerant receiver appears as a line item within larger mechanical systems procurements rather than as a standalone purchase driver. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC), procuring on behalf of Austin State Supported Living Center, issued IFB HHS0017634 in July 2026 requesting blanket-order bids for refrigerants including R22, R410A, and R454A alongside compressors, blower motors, capacitors, and other HVAC parts, with an estimated contract value of $50,000 over one year. State corrections and criminal-justice agencies (Texas Department of Criminal Justice), state transportation and maintenance entities (Texas Military Department, California Department of Transportation), county facilities management (Williamson County, Clay County, Hancock County, Montgomery County), and regional transit authorities (Dallas Area Rapid Transit Authority) dominate the issuing-body mix, with recurring Williamson County chiller plant and air-handling-unit replacements suggesting concentrated capital-improvement cycles in Texas.

Geographic activity concentrates heavily in Texas, with secondary clusters in California, Georgia, Florida, and other states. Texas accounts for the plurality of recent solicitations—TDCJ alone posted multiple HVAC trailer-mounted unit bids in June 2026, and Williamson County issued overlapping capital-improvement RFPs for chiller plants and AHU replacements across multiple facilities. Representative recent opportunities include HHSC HHS0017634 (IFB, July 28, 2026 due date) seeking refrigerants and HVAC components on a blanket-order basis; Texas Military Department IFB TMD26-CHE-0044401 (Challenge Academy HVAC unit replacement, June 30, 2026 due date) for a single rooftop unit replacement at Eagle Lake; and Clay County RFB 2526097 (July 27, 2026) for CRAC system modernization at the Emergency Operations Center. Hancock County issued two sealed-bid procurements in June 2026 for 20-ton packaged air-conditioner replacement and six rooftop HVAC unit removal and replacement at county buildings. The code shows consistent activity across mechanical-systems-focused state and local capital-improvement and maintenance budgets, with demand driven by aging building infrastructure upgrades and compliance-driven replacements. Liquidity in this commodity reflects broader HVAC procurement volume rather than standalone refrigerant-receiver demand.
