The 2 service men were on time, assessed the problem, diagnosed the issue, came up with a plan and offered several solutions for fixing our mini split. They took pictures, tried clearing out mice debris , attempted to get the outside machine to work ( apex 2 hours) Alas a no go, so we decided to scrap it and go with baseboard heater for the room over the garage. Up front information and pricing , no nonsense. Affable techs and so far great service.

Eaven though I was very specific what toilet I wanted they put the wrong one in.
Absolutely incredible and fast service from Nicole T! Our upstairs toilet began leaking Saturday night and by noon on Monday we had a new toilet! Nicole was super informative and walked us through our different options every step of the way. She made an otherwise stressful situation so much easier!

I was thoroughly impressed with the superb HVAC maintenance service I received from David Santiago and trainee, Kevin today! Before David and Kevin arrived I was very disappointed with having had my original service date rescheduled to what I thought were spurious reasons? In fact David and Kevin arrived after the designated rescheduled date and time today. GEM's communication was excellent throughout and their people seemed genuine and concerned. When David and Kevin arrived it turned the whole situation around. They could not have been more professional and knowledgable! I am now firmly committed to GEM and their Home Comfort maintenance program.

We just had our heating system replaced. We went from forced hot water system to a central heating and air conditioning system done by GEM plumbing and heating company We had Omar and Michael work in our home for 5 days they installed all the ductwork, the furnace and the condenser. These guys were very professional, kind, clean and informative throughout the whole install every day they explaind what they did and what is the expectation for the next day. Today was the last day they walked me through the whole system, how to change the filter how to operate the new thermostat and what to look for when things are not working properly. I say thank you to the whole team from planing to done, all went great to expectations

How to Know When You Need a New Water Heater Installed

Here’s how to tell if your water heater is failing.

Our technicians see these issues regularly. Here’s what they mean for Warwick homeowners considering repair vs. replacement.

Most water heaters last 8 to 12 years. If yours is in that range or older, efficiency has likely declined and a breakdown could happen any day. Replacing proactively means you choose when it happens, not your water heater.

Rusty or discolored hot water often means corrosion inside the tank. While a failing anode rod can sometimes be replaced, rust in an older system usually signals the tank itself is deteriorating. New water heater installation in Warwick restores clean, clear hot water.

If your water heater used to bounce back quickly but now takes hours to reheat, sediment buildup or failing components are reducing capacity. When flushing no longer helps, water heater replacement in Warwick is the fix.

Strange sounds during heating cycles usually indicate sediment has hardened at the bottom of the tank. This forces the system to work harder and can eventually cause cracks. When flushing doesn’t quiet the noise, replacement makes more sense than waiting for failure.

We Install All Types of Water Heaters in Warwick

Water heater technology offers several options, each with characteristics suited to different situations.

GEM helps Warwick homeowners evaluate these choices and installs the system that works best. Here’s what’s available:

Tankless technology heats water on demand as it passes through the unit rather than storing a heated supply. This delivers unlimited hot water while eliminating the energy waste of maintaining tank temperature. Compact tankless units fit easily in beach cottages and homes with limited utility space. GEM installs tankless water heaters in Warwick for homeowners seeking efficiency and endless supply.

Tank-style heaters maintain a reservoir of heated water available whenever you need it. These systems offer proven reliability, reasonable installation costs, and multiple size options. For most Warwick families, traditional tanks provide the dependable performance their households require.

Hybrid water heaters extract heat from ambient air to warm water instead of generating heat directly. This technology achieves efficiency levels far exceeding conventional heaters while keeping a tank of hot water ready. Warwick homeowners focused on minimizing energy costs and maximizing rebate opportunities often select hybrid models. GEM installs these efficient systems throughout the city.

Water Heater Installation FAQs

What size water heater do I need for my Warwick home?

The right size depends on your household’s actual hot water usage, not just your home’s square footage. A family of four in Warwick typically needs a 40 to 50 gallon tank, while a couple might be fine with 30 gallons. GEM’s technicians consider peak usage times, like when everyone’s getting ready in the morning, and recommend a size that meets your demand without wasting energy heating water you won’t use. We’ll size your system based on how your family actually lives.

How does GEM determine what capacity water heater my household needs?

We look at several factors specific to your Warwick home: how many people live there, number of bathrooms, whether you have high-flow showerheads or standard fixtures, and when your peak usage occurs. A household where everyone showers in the morning has different needs than one where usage is spread throughout the day. We also consider your existing infrastructure since upgrading from a 40-gallon to an 80-gallon tank may require electrical or venting modifications.

How are water heaters warranted?

Tank water heaters include manufacturer warranties typically ranging from 6 to 12 years on the tank. GEM reviews warranty coverage with Warwick homeowners as part of the selection process.

How do I maintain my new water heater?

Annual flushing to remove sediment buildup extends water heater life and maintains efficiency. The anode rod should be checked every few years and replaced when depleted since it protects the tank from corrosion. GEM’s Home Comfort Club includes maintenance visits that handle these tasks. For Warwick homes with hard water, more frequent flushing may be beneficial.

Can I get same-day water heater installation?

In most cases, yes. GEM maintains a large fleet of service trucks throughout the Kent County area, and we stock common water heater sizes so we can respond to emergencies quickly. If your water heater fails in the morning, we can often have a new one installed by afternoon. Call us and we’ll let you know what’s available for your Warwick location that day.
