RECOMMENDED ACTION
Renew the contract with Air Cleaning Systems, Inc. for preventative
maintenance for diesel exhaust removal systems and repair services for a
one-year period in the annual amount not to exceed $26,450.
DISCUSSION
Fire Station apparatus rooms accumulate diesel exhaust smoke and fumes when
vehicle engines are started. All ten fire station's front line apparatus
are outfitted with a PlyrnoVent Diesel Exhaust Removal System. The diesel
exhaust removal system provides a hose assembly that collects and removes
all exhaust fumes, thereby facilitating a cleaner air quality environment
within the fire stations. The diesel exhaust removal systems require a
minimum of two preventative maintenance tune-ups per year and repair
services from time to time.
Air Cleaning Systems, Inc. has been certified by PlymoVent as an authorized
distributor, installer and warranty repair center and has agreed to renew
the contract with a minimum increase in pricing. The vendor has performed
satisfactorily during the past contract period and staff recommends the
renewal of the contract.
