UNSPSC 40101845: Reverberatory furnace

A furnace that is used for smelting and refining of metal.

UNSPSC 40101845 Reverberatory furnace is a Commodity code covering furnace replacement and installation work that state and local governments procure primarily through community development and facilities-maintenance programs. Recent solicitations show the code captures HVAC equipment replacements — including 95% efficient gas-fired furnaces with AGA certification, paired often with air conditioning and water heater upgrades — supplied and installed at municipal buildings, schools, and single-family homes under community development block grants and routine maintenance contracts. The issuing bodies span city community development departments (Jackson, Michigan), municipal transit authorities (Charlotte), school districts (Dayton Public Schools), county corrections facilities (Illinois Department of Corrections at Sheridan), and special-purpose districts (Montgomery County, Pennsylvania police training facilities). The City of Jackson Community Development Department appears as a repeat buyer, posting multiple furnace-replacement IFBs for CDBG-funded residential rehabilitation in mid-2026.

Recent activity concentrates in Michigan, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Illinois, with no national geographic spread evident in the recent-opportunities block. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Jackson Community Development Department's IFB 2026COMMUNITYDEVELOPMENT048 (posted September 28, 2026, due September 28, 2026) for furnace, A/C, and water heater replacement at 315 Bates Street, requiring 95% efficient gas-fired furnaces compliant with Michigan Mechanical Code and Davis-Bacon prevailing wage compliance; the Dayton Public School District's RFP 27002 (posted September 21, 2026, due October 23, 2026) for HVAC system replacements at three schools; and the State of Illinois Department of Corrections' small-purchase BOA 26426DOCSHERIB52254 (posted May 5, 2026, due May 12, 2026) for HVAC components and furnaces delivered to Sheridan Correctional Center. Most Jackson solicitations require SAM.gov registration, active state licensing, performance and payment bonds, and 18-month warranties; CDBG-funded work carries prevailing wage, Davis-Bacon, and Section 3 employment compliance obligations.
