Council selects Elite for city-hall furnace after warranty debate
Summary
After discussing two bids, the council voted to accept Elite Refrigeration, Heating & AC's furnace bid citing dealer familiarity and product size; Mechanical Energy had offered a 10-year labor warranty but Elite's motion carried after council votes.
Council reviewed two furnace bids: Elite Refrigeration, Heating & AC (10 years parts, 1 year labor; lifetime heat exchanger warranty; thermostat not included) and Mechanical Energy Systems (10 years parts and 10 years labor). Council members discussed vendor reliability, warranty length and labor coverage.
After discussion Gene Skaj moved to select Elite (motion later seconded by Steve Trobec) and the motion carried with the minutes recording "All in favor, motion carried." Council discussed that Elite has previously provided maintenance for the city and that quick response is valuable; Mechanical's longer labor warranty was noted but did not carry the vote.
