When we first opened our doors in 1959, the industry of air conditioning / refrigeration was much simpler. Our founder Robert E. Donovan, began as a one man operation working night and day to build his fledgling business. He won customers over by giving them the best, most efficient service they ever had. From those humble beginnings a strong customer service ethic evolved. The R.E. Donovan Company grew and prospered into one of the largest and most dependable independent air conditioning contractors in the Washington DC Metro Area. Over the years the world, and our industry have changed dramatically. New technology and legislation have challenged businesses like ours to help our customers to provide the most efficient and enviromently safe products at reasonsable cost. We have grown with the industry and welcomed new technology as it has been developed. But our dedication to prompt, personal service has not faltered. We firmly believe our services are the best available anywhere.  The R.E. Donovan Company offers you a large company's experience and technical ability with a small company's flexibilty and understanding.
