Have your service company come out for a yearly maintenance if it's due. Part of this proceedure should be a check up for loose wire connections throughout the system.

A good installation is a given. Aside from that what would be more of a consideration between brands would be a comparison of models. Each brand has it's range of quality vs. price, 22 vs. 410a, seer...
