Between 36" and 42" depending on which company made it and if it has a low-C, low-Eb, or low-E range.
It's possible to extend the height with the floor peg on some models as high as 5'+ at the mouthpiece but that's due to the height of the peg, not the instrument.
A good rule of thumb for the height of things, door knobs and window sills are about 3' from the floor. Stand a Bass Clarinet on the floor without the peg extended and it's just about the same height (or a little higher) as a door-knob.
