BID SPECIFICATIONS

Deicers meeting FAA standards vary in formulation and have different performance characteristics - see following graph. It is, therefore, important to pay close attention to bid specifications written into product solicitations. Failure to properly consider all the elements associated with product formulation, product quality, product performance, and the manufacturer's ability to supply can compromise airport operations. See the guide specification for anhydrous grade sodium acetate.
