UNSPSC 40141922: Copper ducts or ductwork

Copper tubing, canal or passage by which fluid or gas is conveyed.

UNSPSC 40141922 Copper ducts or ductwork (Commodity) encompasses the supply and installation of metal ductwork components, including dampers, terminal boxes, air handling units, and related HVAC accessories for building systems. State and local governments procure this code primarily through county facilities departments and special-purpose utility districts undertaking facility upgrades, renovations, and system replacements. The work includes both new duct installation and retrofit projects involving fire-alarm systems, smoke control, and building automation upgrades, often paired with HVAC system modernization across correctional facilities, municipal utilities, and school district infrastructure.

Orange County, Florida issued the most recent and material opportunity under this code: a $2.89 million IFB (Y26-718) for the Corrections Booking and Release Center Building Automation System, Smoke and Fire Alarm Air Duct Accessories, with sealed bids due October 20, 2026 at 4:00 p.m. EST via OpenGov e-Procurement. The scope includes replacement of building automation controls, installation of UL-864 compliant smoke control systems, and retrofitting of fire/smoke dampers, terminal boxes, duct heaters, air handling units, and energy recovery units. A Service Disabled Veteran-owned business preference of 5% applies. A 10% bid bond and Payment and Performance Bonds equal to the contract amount are required upon award. Liquidated damages are $150 per calendar day. The City of Charlotte also posted an RFP (26920271769) due October 15, 2026 for boiler and chiller maintenance and repair services at CATS facilities, though this opportunity involves equipment servicing rather than duct supply or installation. The Stephens County Board of Education in Georgia solicited CM at Risk proposals (PE55598NONST2027000000002) due October 9, 2026 for districtwide renovations including fire-alarm system replacements and HVAC improvements with an estimated construction budget of $20 million to $26 million, but the primary focus is construction management rather than copper ductwork procurement. Recent activity concentrates in Florida and Georgia. The code shows limited transparent state and local procurement volume; the Orange County opportunity is the only clear match to the nominal scope.
