What summer actually asks of a system in Wilmington
Wilmington gets about 65 days above 80°F in a year, and only about 12 above 90°F. That short, concentrated peak is exactly why an oversized air conditioner works badly here: it cools the air quickly, then shuts off before it has pulled the humidity out, leaving the house cold and clammy.

Wilmington's housing is 89% single-family and mostly built between 1940 and 1979, with only 12% predating 1939 — the era of ducted forced air and later retrofits rather than radiator-only construction. The town is fully inland with no tidal shoreline, so the salt-air corrosion that drives coil and cabinet choices on the coast is not a factor here. Cooling demand is modest by the numbers: the Shawsheen basin's 1971-2000 baseline is 554 cooling degree-days a year against 6,457 heating degree-days. Rebates run through Reading Municipal Light Department, not Mass Save.

RMLD's residential rebates include a Heat Pump Rebate or 0% Interest Loan and a $500 Electric Panel Upgrade Rebate; RMLD customers are eligible only for RMLD's electricity-related rebates, not Mass Save's.
