Here’s Why You Should Replace Your Water Heater

You’ve already decided replacement is the answer. Here’s what moving forward actually delivers.

Your old unit has been wasting energy for a while now. New water heaters consume less fuel or electricity for the same hot water output, so utility savings start the day we install.

No more uncertainty about whether today’s the day it dies. A new system provides consistent hot water whenever your household needs it.

You’ve likely already spent money keeping the old one running. A new water heater eliminates those recurring repair costs.

A modern, efficient water heater adds to your home’s value. Buyers recognize systems that won’t need replacing anytime soon.

As always, the technicians do a wonderful job and they’re friendly. The only thing I can say negative it’s overpriced and maybe give a better discount to seniors that are retired

Once again, Gem to the rescue! My well pump failed but Gem didn’t. I have used Gem Plumbing for several years and have consistently been impressed with their service. They have responded quickly to a variety of emergencies and projects, including repairing my well, installing a hot water heater, replacing my electrical panel, and repairing my generator. In every case, their technicians arrived promptly, acted professionally, accurately diagnosed the problem, and successfully completed the repair. Their workmanship has been reliable, and their communication has always been clear and straightforward. It’s reassuring to have a company like Gem Plumbing that I can count on when something unexpected happens. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for responsive, professional, and dependable

I wasn’t anticipating a plumbing issue on a Friday before a long weekend but there I was with a busted hot water tank and a very wet floor. I called GEM at 1030am and by 130 Carmelo and Marcelo were at my house. They quickly diagnosed the situation and we scheduled an appointment for Sat am to have the tank replaced. Sat AM they were there earlier than planned and completed the job efficiently and professionally. Very happy with this company !

Water Heater Replacement FAQs

How quickly can GEM install my new water heater?

Most replacements finish in two to four hours. Since you’ve already determined replacement is needed, same-day installation is often available. Tankless systems may take longer if modifications are required.

Should I choose a tank or tankless water heater?

That depends on household usage, available space, and budget. Tank water heaters cost less upfront and serve most homes well. Tankless models have higher initial costs but provide endless hot water and typically last longer. GEM’s plumbers can help you decide what makes sense for your Barrington home.

What rebates are available through Rhode Island Energy?

Rhode Island Energy offers rebates on qualifying high-efficiency water heaters, including heat pump models. GEM helps Barrington homeowners identify which models qualify and assists with the rebate paperwork.

Does GEM handle removal of my old water heater?

Yes. We disconnect and remove your old unit as part of every replacement. Disposal is handled.
