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.

Amy D'Alessandro
GEM plumbing recently installed a ductless minisplit system in my home. The installers did an excellent job. They were extremely knowledgeable, courteous, and patient. They communicated with me every step of the way and took the time to answer all of my questions. The system is working beautifully. If you are looking for a contractor to install a ductless minisplit system, I highly recommend GEM plumbing.

I do wish it hadn’t been so expensive, but I will say I really did feel like my technician understood what he was doing. He was knowledgeable and professional. He explained things well and I’d be happy to work with him again.

Both service calls to my house were with Nick, and I can't say enough good things about him. He's professional, courteous, communicative, and thorough. My only hiccup with Gem has been conflicting information from the office, but even with hiccups the staff have been professional and friendly. Thank you, Gem! You're the best, Nick!

great guy! vaery talented and professional
Tracy J H
Joseph (Junior) from GEM Plumbing & Heating came out to do a check on our HVAC system for this season. He was very thorough, knowledgeable, and honest. Our system is in great shape after 16 years. Thank you Joe!!! We were on a contract plan, which was very reasonable, so we paid nothing at the time of service.
Thomas Mancini
Our tech was Joseph (junior), Incredible experience came out the same day.Billed me for the service. Exceptional diagnostics, developed a number of options to fix the problem. We called four other places.First three never showed one showed and walked away, without figuring anything out. Our A/C has been out for 6 wks waiting for people to not show up. YOU ABSOLUTELY MUST CALL GEM FIRST
Katie Kramarz
GEM responded very quickly. I was out of state when my tenant called stating the A/c system wasn't working. I called GEM to see if they would be willing to help me. I didn't have an account with them but they were more than willing to assist me with my broken A/C system.
Nick the technician was very knowledgeable and worked with me while I was out of state and with my tenants. He articulated very well, explaining all the issues, what the repair process would involve and the cost. There were no surprises. My tenants informed me that Nick was terrific !
Nick got the system up and running. Overall, it was a very positive experience and I would highly recommend GEM to anyone.
Charles Hiteshew
Great service. Timely response and got the job done. It’s on the pricey side but that’s expected given their quick response time. Joe was particularly good and have had him out twice on our property. Thanks!
pierre Florestal
From beginning to end the experience was amazing. It started with my man Walter who calmly with humor explained the process and my guys Ben and his partner who took cared of me and my family. They were professional and very knowledgeable about the process. Their patience when not finding my well was welcome. Awesome job
Thank you

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.
