DESCRIPTION: On December 15, 1998, the City Council awarded Contract 98-15
Fire Station Exhaust Removal System to Air Exchange, Inc. This system involves use of pneumatic hoses
that are connected directly to the fire apparatus exhaust pipes. The pneumatic fittings disconnect
automatically when the apparatus leaves the station so that no time is spent disconnecting the hoses when
an emergency call is received. This system eliminates exposure to the diesel exhaust and fulfills the
OSHA requirements.
After installation was completed, it was discovered that a fourth vehicle needed to be moved inside the
station, necessitating the installation of an additional exhaust hose and track. The cost of the additional
equipment was $3,358.46. Because the estimated total project cost with this addition was so close to the
approved budget, Staff felt that it would be more cost effective to issue a change order than to budget for
a new project next fiscal year.
The work has now been completed, and the system is fully operational. Staff recommends that the City
Council accept the improvements, approve a budget adjustment in the amount of $443.76, and authorize
final payment of $3,358.46 to Air Exchange, Inc.
