Main point
A lower price is meaningful only when the quoted duties and supply boundaries are comparable. Build a technical comparison before treating differently specified baghouses as equivalent alternatives.

Information to record
Use common rows for gas conditions, dust information, inlet and outlet requirements, material construction, cleaning equipment, controls and discharge interfaces. Add installation, access, documentation and acceptance requirements. Mark each supplier's assumption, exclusion or unanswered item rather than leaving a blank that implies agreement.

Review and acceptance
Ask for clarification where offers differ and keep the revised comparison with the final purchase decision. Separate supported commitments from preliminary estimates. A broad efficiency or lifetime statement without conditions should remain an unresolved technical question, not an automatic scoring advantage.

FAQ: Should exclusions affect the comparison?
Yes. They affect the complete project scope and must be made explicit.
FAQ: Is a familiar model name enough to compare offers?
Compare the actual proposed configuration and its stated duty.
