Mel-O-Air: A Legacy of Comfort and Reliability
Mel-O-Air has been a household name in the HVAC industry for over seven decades. Founded in 1952 by Melvin O’Brien, the company started as a small furnace repair shop in a modest garage. Little did Melvin know that his passion for helping people stay warm would blossom into a thriving business that would serve generations of homeowners.
The Early Years
In the beginning, Mel-O-Air focused primarily on furnace installations and repairs. As word spread about Melvin’s expertise and dedication to customer service, the company quickly gained a loyal following. By the late 1950s, Mel-O-Air had expanded its services to include air conditioning, becoming a one-stop shop for all heating and cooling needs.
Growing with the Community
Throughout the 1960s and 1970s, Mel-O-Air continued to grow alongside the communities it served. The company’s commitment to quality workmanship and fair pricing helped it weather economic ups and downs. By the 1980s, Mel-O-Air had become a regional leader in HVAC services, with a fleet of service vehicles and a team of skilled technicians.
