Ductless Mini-Split Installations

Belknap County, New Hampshire is issuing a Request for Proposal (RFP-2026-07CM) for the supply and installation of ductless mini-split HVAC systems at two separate locations within the county. The procurement encompasses a turnkey installation of Mitsubishi equipment, including a Conference Room system with two Mitsubishi Hyper Heat Condensing Units (Model MXZ-3C24NAHZ4-U1) paired with four 2' x 2' 4-Way Ceiling Cassette Units (Model SLZ-AF12NL) and an 18-inch fixed stand for condenser mounting, plus a Server Room system consisting of one Mitsubishi P-Series Condensing Unit (Model PUY-AH30NL) for cooling-only operation and one wall-mounted indoor unit (Model PKA-AK30NL). The complete scope of work requires all labor, materials, equipment, controls, electrical work, and roof penetrations necessary for full system operation, including mechanical installation of refrigeration systems with pressure testing and evacuation, proper placement of indoor and outdoor units with manufacturer-recommended clearances and vibration isolation, complete electrical work with circuit breakers and disconnects, roof penetrations with proper flashing and weatherproofing, controls and system integration, full testing and commissioning, and a minimum one-year labor warranty in addition to manufacturer's standard equipment warranty. Contractors must conduct a mandatory site visitation prior to bidding, coordinate with the County Facilities Department, and perform work during normal business hours to minimize disruption. Proposals must be submitted by 12:00 PM on Wednesday, April 15, 2026, to Jon Bossey, Facilities Director, at jbossey@belknapcounty.gov or in person at 34 County Drive, Laconia, NH 03246. The RFP does not specify evaluation criteria, set-asides, funding amounts, or contract term details. Bidders should coordinate with identified vendors Northeast Electrical Solutions (Greg Selesky, 603-387-3506) and Melanson Roofing (603-224-0444) for portions of the work requiring their expertise.

No incumbent vendors or current contractors are referenced in the procurement announcement, nor is there mention of existing infrastructure or technology requiring integration beyond the specified Mitsubishi equipment models.
