Substitution" in the bid. It is not intended to exclude other products, but to convey the type, functional
characteristics and quality of the item desired. Any item that the Owner, in its sole discretion, determines
and approves to be the equal of that specified considering quality, workmanship, economy of operation and
suitability for the purpose intended will be considered. Thus "equal" products of other manufacturers may

Bidder to provide data on all products so that the Owner can compare.
