Water Heater Replacement

Your home’s water heater should be able to provide enough hot water throughout the day. If it’s not, GEM can help you with a water heater replacement. Our experienced technicians will help you choose between the most popular types of water heaters, including:

  • Conventional water heater: These systems use gas or electricity and store hot water in a large tank. Upgrading can help reduce your energy bills by about 7%.
  • Tankless water heater: This model continuously provides on-demand hot water. Tankless water heaters can save up to 30% on energy costs.
  • Hybrid water heater: These water heaters combine a tank with a heat pump to provide hot water. They can help save up to 60% on energy costs.

If you own a business in Rhode Island or Massachusetts, conventional commercial-grade water heaters are the best option. The water will stay stored in the tank until it’s needed. However, if your business uses a lot of hot water, you may want to consider a tankless water heater.

FAQs

Does replacing your water heater increase home value?

You can replace your old water heater to increase your home’s value. This is true if you choose an energy-efficient model, as potential homebuyers will recognize that it’s a newer model that they won’t have to replace anytime soon.

Should I replace my 13-year-old water heater?

Typical water heaters only last around eight to 12 years, depending on their usage and maintenance. If your water heater is over 12 years old and not performing well, consider replacing it. Energy-efficient technology for water heaters has come a long way, so you can see a reduction in energy bills with a newer model.
