I would definitely recommend Carmines and Paul V for any of your HAVAC needs.

Great job by David
Victor is the best. He fixed our clogged pipes and came out right away
Great service ! They were on time, respectful and took care of business quickly and efficiently
Lost our well water tank, great job with replacement. While here had them replace kitchen faucet and garbage disposal also. Will use GEM from now on!
Eric and Steve are great. Got the job done fast. Cleaned up. Terrific work.
We had 2 very old direct vent gas wall heaters replaced. Evan and Steve are the best. They explained everything and did a awesome job for never putting in these Rianni heaters . Kept me informed and answered all my questions and eased my concerns . Couldn't of asked for two better guys. The electrician and his assistant were outstanding with the fact the house was
built in 1925 with older wiring . Chen and his assistant installed 2 dedicated circuit for both heaters to run on and it works out great as now my air conditioner will run on the dedicated circuit this summer. Would recommend all of them for future heating needs .
We had the bathroom one downsized to a smaller unit with no issue what so ever even with them having to remove the bigger one they had put in they were happy to accommodate the issue
They are sweet, knowledgeable and quick. Thank you guys for an excellent job done, I appreciate it.
The gem guys could not have been any nicer. We had to leave and trusted them in our home alone.
Very professional and thorough. Serviced not only my mini-split but my air conditioner and checked my furnace and changed it's filter. Very happy.
The folks at Carmine's/GEM always do a great job๐Ÿ‘ Anthony Pena did a great job checking the gas dryer connection and valve. Made sure everything was working properly and that there were no leaks.
Joan Martinez came to my house on an emergency call when my furnace/boiler broke down at 1 am. He diagnosed the issues and unfortunately I needed a new system. GEM installed the new system over the next two days. Everyone on the crew was excellent. I signed up for GEMโ€™s maintenance program because if I had previously it would have prolonged the life of my furnace/boiler. Today Joan Martinez returned to do routine maintenance on my mini splits. He was very thorough and made sure the units are ready for the summer season. I highly recommend and trust Joan Martinez for any job.
Brody you were terrific! So knowledgeable. Appreciate that he showed what might be needed in the future. Thanks Gem Plumbing for sending him. Thanks for coming out Steve and servicing air conditioning and cleaning splits replacing filters as well as making sure it all works. I appreciate the prompt and friendly service. Sincerely I've
Anthony did a great job. He was very professional, friendly, and explained to us what he found and what was needed. Excellent service! Thank you!
Services were very good. Technician was very polite, respectful and knowledgeable. I was very pleased.
Thoughtful and shared every step.
David was friendly and knowledgeable.
Very good experience. Quality work, and professional.
David was very thorough and patient. He was determined to get us a resolution and even ensured he taught us on best practices and troubleshooting techniques.
Although, we had to drop a lot of money today. We are very appreciative of David Santiago and Colin D. David explained everything that was wrong with our system. Even tried to find a way to fix the disaster. Even though we both knew, it wasn't worth it. That's where Colin come in and broke the heart breaking news but helped us find options and worked with us. With that we are VERY thankful for you both! GEM has a life long customer. Thanks guys.
Alex did a great job and most importantly, gained the confidence of my wife. Not an insignificant accomplishment in the middle of major repairs that required shutting off water and not flushing toilets, etc. Thanks Alex!


How to Know When You Need a New Water Heater Installed

These symptoms mean your water heater may be done.

Here’s what West Warwick homeowners need to know. These symptoms often indicate your water heater won’t last much longer.

Most water heaters last 8 to 12 years with proper care. If yours is in that age range or older, efficiency has dropped and failure could come any time. Replacing now gives you control over the timing.

Rust or corrosion visible on the outside of your water heater usually means worse conditions inside. Once corrosion sets in, tank failure is a matter of time. Replacing before a leak occurs prevents water damage.

If showers are getting cut short or you’re running out of hot water during normal use, your tank may be losing capacity. Sediment buildup and aging components reduce how much hot water the system can deliver.

Metallic or sulfur odors coming from your hot water indicate problems inside the tank. Bacteria growth or a failing anode rod are common causes. In older systems, these issues often mean replacement is the better path forward.

Water Heater Installation FAQs

What maintenance does a water heater need?

Regular maintenance includes annual flushing to remove sediment, periodic anode rod inspection, and checking the pressure relief valve. These simple tasks extend equipment life and maintain efficiency. Many West Warwick homeowners find it easier to have GEM handle maintenance through our Home Comfort Club, which includes scheduled service visits and priority scheduling if problems arise.

What size water heater do I need for my West 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 West 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 much does water heater installation cost in West Warwick?

Installation costs vary based on equipment selection, any modifications your home requires, and installation complexity. A basic tank replacement in an accessible location costs less than a tankless installation requiring electrical upgrades or a basement installation with limited access. GEM provides upfront pricing so you know the total cost before we begin work.

How quickly can GEM install a new water heater at my West Warwick home?

Most installations are completed in a single visit, typically two to four hours for a straightforward tank replacement. Our technicians serving West Warwick arrive prepared with equipment and parts to handle the job efficiently. We know you need hot water, so we work without unnecessary delays while still doing the job right.

How long do water heaters typically last?

Standard tank water heaters last 8 to 12 years with proper maintenance. Tankless units can last 20 years or more. Factors that affect lifespan include water quality in your West Warwick home, how hard the unit works, and whether maintenance tasks like flushing and anode rod replacement are performed. GEM’s Home Comfort Club helps extend equipment life through regular maintenance.
