Our Air Conditioning Products
At O’Brien Service Company, we offer a range of options to cool your home. When it comes time to have an AC installation, you want to be certain you are receiving the best quality products; here at O’Brien, that is what we offer. From Trane heat pumps to WaterFurnace geothermal systems to Mitsubishi ductless systems, we only install top-of-the-line equipment for your home. Below is a brief summary of the air conditioning systems available at O’Brien Service Company.
Heat Pump
Heat pumps are a central cooling system that also heats your home; they are incredibly popular in our area since we don’t usually experience extreme temperatures. Heat pump systems can keep you cool in Wilmington’s summer months and warm during our winters. When choosing a heat pump system, you will have the flexibility of choosing from different options; these options will depend on how efficiently you want your system to cool your home. Our AC installation of a heat pump will consist of two parts, the outdoor condenser, and an indoor air handler. For more information on how a heat pump works, visit our heat pump tab.
Straight AC System
A straight AC system is a central cooling system that only provides AC to your home. In order to keep your home comfortable year-round, a furnace can be matched with this system to keep you toasty during the winter.
Geothermal
A geothermal system is also a central cooling system, and it can provide heat to your home as well. A geothermal system uses the earth’s natural energy to provide comfort in the colder months. This is an environmentally friendly option, and also in most cases, is the most energy-efficient choice. The installation price can be costly. However, with financing options offered, tax credits available, and energy savings each month, it’s well worth its value and is a great investment.

Ductless Mini Split
A ductless system, like the name entails, is a heating and cooling system that does not require any duct system to operate. So if you live in a home that currently does not have ductwork or you’re adding an addition to your home, this could be a great option for you.
A ductless system works by having one outdoor unit and at least one mounted indoor unit. The indoor unit will heat or cool the space it is installed. A refrigerant line connects the indoor and outdoor units. It’s also possible to install multiple indoor units to cool and heat several rooms. Two major reasons that customers choose ductless systems are 1) it is a zone-controlled system. Meaning that you can change the temperature in one room without affecting the temperature of the rest of your home. 2) it can be more cost-effective to install and maintain than other options. If you think that a ductless system is a sensible solution for your home or office, give O’Brien a call today for a complimentary in-home evaluation.
Proper Air Conditioner Sizing
It’s very important to know the right size system needed for your home before you proceed with an AC installation. The only way to confirm that your system is sized correctly is during an in-home evaluation in order to have the proper load calculation done. No company should provide an estimate over the phone without visiting your home. At O’Brien we take our time during the evaluation; our goal is to ensure that the systems we offer are the best options for your home.
We want to make sure we match you with the right-sized system. If you have a system installed that is too small for your home, it will never be able to maintain a comfortable temperature. Ultimately, it will lower the life expectancy due to the system overworking. On the other hand, if the air conditioning system is too large for your home, it will also lower the life expectancy. This is because the system will have to switch on and off constantly and may cause humidity problems. In both situations, it can cause high energy bills and wear on your system. As well as it will not keep your home comfortable. Even if you already had another estimate, don’t hesitate to call us for a complimentary evaluation. Just to confirm you’re getting the right system for your home and the best AC installation.
“From my first call I was extremely happy with the professionalism, desire to accommodate my schedule, and the attention to detail. Mike actually arrived a couple of minutes early to meet with me about replacing a 20+ year old system. He thoroughly explained my options, answered my questions, and gave me a couple of choices. I felt confident in my choice and knew exactly what the installers would do. The installers also arrived on time. They again explained what they were going to do, how long it would take, and located the electrical panel so that they wouldn’t have to disturb me as they worked. The install was completed right on schedule, everything was cleaned up, and I was given a tutorial on my new thermostat. Mike returned another day to make sure that I wasn’t having any problems with the system or the thermostat and to answer any questions that I had. O’Brien’s customer service, professionalism, products, product cost, and attention to detail can’t be beat. O’Brien is an outstanding company. They should be your first and only choice in HVAC companies.” -Susan B. (Wilmington 28412)
