These must be 4-section, 12-inch, louvered black aluminum units with a 5-inch border and standard mounting. All provided equipment must be new, unused, and of first quality. While the City prefers the specified model, bids for equal or superior products may be considered at the sole discretion of the City, provided the bidder includes a detailed explanation of any deviations.
