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.

Don’t Trust Your Home & Family to Just Anyone.

Super fast response time (called at 4:00 on Monday and Mike & Chris were at the house at 11:15 on Tuesday). Mike and Chris were excellent, diagnosed the source of the odor (bad wax ring) and completed the job by 12:15.

Khorey J. and his colleague did an excellent job inspecting our heating and cooling mini-split system. They took the time to explain the issues in detail and gave us peace of mind and at ease by ensuring that everything was working properly. They also explained and demonstrated when the condenser fan should turn on at various temperatures and settings. Both men were knowledgeable, professional, polite, and respectful. We have been customers of Gem Heating and Plumbing for many years, and, as always, they were there when we needed their services. Thank you, Gem Plumbing!

Have used GEM several times. After some rough experiences with some other HVAC companies, I can say GEM has been consistently outstanding. Highly recommended.

We had an emergency service performed on Saturday, the technician Chris was professional and talked me through everything he was doing. I’d rate his overall work on a scale of 1-10 as over 10 because he was that awesome. What gets me is the pricing of the service. As I mentioned it was an emergency, and as the customer I want an itemized breakdown of parts and labor. I just called GEM and they mentioned they do not provide that. I will continue to call until I get the satisfaction I want on full disclosure of MY billing statement the was paid for in FULL by MYSELF. I know GEM reads these reviews and I want my fully itemized bill for services rendered.

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.
