What Our Customers Are Saying
100% Satisfaction Guarantee
We found roots growing in an old, 2-foot, cast-iron section of my main drainage pipe.
He used a blade attachment and cleared the obstruction to the best of his ability. Then left me with a quote to have the 2-foot section of cast iron replaced with PVC—which is only a small section that penetrated the foundation of my home.
I was very happy with the service, and most importantly the transparent approach which allowed me to make informed decisions.
Nate’s customer service skills were out of this world. I advise GEM Plumbing to invest in this young man.
I had two whole house central AC units replaced (19 yrs old) and their team and other parts of the company (Plumbling, electrical, etc.) worked together to do an unbelieable installation in very hot conditions. My hats off to your company and we are so impressed that I contracted GEM to install a whole house 25kw generator.
The team was:

It was super easy booking online The next day the dispatcher, (unfortunately I don’t know her name) called to offer an earlier appointment. She was very polite and kind.
My whole transaction was smooth and pleasant from start to finish!

How to Know When You Need a New Air Conditioner Installed
Understanding the warning signs helps you replace your system on your schedule instead of during an emergency.
Here’s what indicates you need air conditioning installation in Barrington.
Salt air from Narragansett Bay accelerates deterioration on outdoor AC units. You notice rust and corrosion on the condenser. The coil fins are damaged. Metal components show years of coastal exposure. Salt exposure causes progressive corrosion that can’t be reversed. Once coastal conditions have significantly damaged your system, replacement provides reliability that repairs can’t match. Modern units with enhanced coastal protection perform better in Barrington’s environment.
Your AC runs but your home still feels damp and sticky. The humidity is oppressive. You can’t get that dry, comfortable feeling that proper cooling should provide. In Barrington’s coastal climate, humidity control is essential. Effective air conditioning removes moisture while cooling. If your system can’t dehumidify properly, it’s failing at a critical function. Persistent indoor humidity can also damage furnishings and encourage mold growth.
Your summer electric bills are painful to open. The costs have climbed dramatically over recent years. You’re paying far too much to stay marginally comfortable. Soaring energy costs indicate serious efficiency loss. Your system consumes excessive power while delivering inadequate cooling. Modern systems can reduce your cooling costs by 30-50% compared to old, failing units.
Some family members are always too hot while others are too cold. You can’t satisfy everyone with your current single-zone system. Different areas of your home have different cooling needs. Modern zoned systems or ductless mini-splits let you control temperature independently in different areas. This solves comfort conflicts while improving efficiency by only cooling spaces you’re actually using.

Air Conditioner Installation FAQs
How does Barrington’s location near Narragansett Bay affect AC systems?
Barrington’s waterfront location means constant exposure to salt air and maritime humidity. Salt accelerates corrosion on outdoor units, and high humidity puts extra demand on cooling systems. We install coastal-rated equipment and factor these conditions into all sizing calculations.
What maintenance does AC need in Barrington’s coastal environment?
Coastal locations require more frequent attention than inland areas. Annual professional service is essential, and outdoor units benefit from periodic cleaning to remove salt buildup. Our Home Comfort Club provides the consistent care your system needs in Barrington’s challenging maritime environment.
What size air conditioner does my Barrington home need?
The right size depends on your home’s square footage, insulation quality, window area, layout, and proximity to water. Barrington’s coastal humidity means proper sizing must account for moisture removal as well as temperature control. Our technicians perform detailed assessments specific to your property.
Can GEM install AC in waterfront Barrington homes?
Absolutely. We specialize in installations for coastal and waterfront properties throughout the East Bay. We understand the unique challenges these homes face and install equipment rated for marine environments with proper corrosion protection.
Are there rebates available for AC installation in Rhode Island?
Yes. Programs through Rhode Island Energy and National Grid offer rebates for high-efficiency air conditioners and heat pumps. As a National Grid Value Plus Installer, we help you navigate available incentives to reduce your installation cost.
