UNSPSC 83101510: Chilled water

UNSPSC 83101510 Chilled water (Commodity) represents potable and recirculating chilled water systems and infrastructure serving municipal water treatment plants, campus energy plants, and utility systems. State and local governments procure under this code the design, construction, installation, testing, and maintenance of chilled water distribution systems, chilled water loop extensions, chiller plant upgrades, and associated piping, pumps, controls, and appurtenances that supply cooling to multiple buildings or facilities. Recent solicitations show chilled water work embedded in broader water, wastewater, or energy infrastructure projects rather than as standalone commodity purchases.

The issuing-body mix includes water and wastewater authorities (Columbus Water Works, Collier County Public Utilities), special-purpose energy districts (Central Florida Tourism Oversight District), municipal utilities, and educational institutions (Collin College, Frisco Independent School District). Water authorities and county utilities dominate recent activity. Geographic spread encompasses Florida (Collier County, Central Florida, St. Petersburg), Georgia (Columbus), and Texas (Collin College in Frisco), with scattered activity across the broader Southeast and Midwest. Representative recent opportunities include Collin College's Frisco Campus Chilled and Heating Water Loop Extension (Competitive Sealed Proposal FY2026-CSP-059, approximately 540 linear feet of new buried hydronic piping with 370 linear feet of replacement and upsizing, proposals due July 28, 2026), the Central Florida Tourism Oversight District's Studios Energy South Chiller Expansion (Invitation to Bid ITN16096, new chillers with piping, cooling tower, and electrical systems, mandatory pre-bid June 10, 2026, bids due June 26, 2026), and the Central Florida Tourism Oversight District's Chiller Winter Maintenance FY 2027 (Request for Proposals RFP16174, winter maintenance cleaning and eddy current testing across five energy plants, proposals due June 25, 2026). The code sees moderate recent activity concentrated in energy plant and campus utility infrastructure work, with award values typically ranging from tens of thousands to low millions depending on scope.
