Joseph and Dan were Knowledgeable and personable! They explained what was being done and went out of their way to complete the job in good time!! Well worth the money spent!

So we had a major plumbing disaster that we discovered this morning. Another plumber we tried did not have availability all week. We called Gem and they came out within a few hours. They got right to the issue and diagnosed it. They stopped the leak, so that was a huge relief! Then they referred us to another person from their company who would follow up and take a look at the equipment to see if we need repairs or replacing.
That person is coming this afternoon.On top of that, we had damage to our walls and they recommended a second company that they work in tandem with who is coming tomorrow morning.
All this networking saved us a lot of time and frustration looking for people to solve these issues! Jim and Dan, who came today, were incredibly efficient, very good at communicating and also very pleasant to deal with. Plumbing issues are not fun, but they managed to make it easy and smooth and I am so grateful!
Also, hereโ€™s a follow up: Ricky also came and gave me the quote for the boiler and installation. He not only installs these types of equipment, but he also knows how to explain how everything works to the client. He did an excellent job telling me what went wrong and how to troubleshoot it in a way I could understand! He was extremely conscientious and made sure I followed his explanation carefully. Next the plumbers came, and Jacob did an incredible job with his assistant Steve. They were very respectful of my property. They got things done in a timely fashion. I now have heat which was a major factor in this whole incident. Another valve had to be installed on a different floor and a plumber took care of that. Then they sent an Electrician when it came time to install the thermostat. All of these contractors worked in tandem. Lastly, the people who came to clean up the house and make repairs on the walls were also in the loop and referred to by Gem. they also were very respectful and did a really good job in a time saving manner. Before leaving, the plumbers made sure that the new valve which was put in nor the old radiator were not causing any leaks so this wouldnโ€™t happen again in the future So am through the worst with my new boiler working this morning. I feel confident that my old house is in good hands now. Thank you Gem and Cleanworks!

How to Know When You Need a New Water Heater Installed

When repairs stop making sense, replacement is the answer.

GEM has seen these issues countless times in East Greenwich homes. Here’s what suggests your water heater may need replacing.

Water heaters typically last 8 to 12 years. Once yours approaches that range, performance declines and the chance of failure goes up. Replacing proactively means you choose when it happens.

Moisture around your water heater often signals a slow leak or tank corrosion. These issues only get worse over time. New water heater installation in East Greenwich stops a small problem from becoming a flooded utility room.

If hot water temperatures vary unpredictably or the supply runs out faster than it used to, your water heater is losing capacity. Aging components and sediment buildup reduce performance over time.

An inefficient water heater uses more energy to produce the same amount of hot water. If your bills have crept up but usage hasn’t changed, your water heater may be the culprit. A new, efficient model brings those costs back down.

We Install All Types of Water Heaters in East Greenwich

Water heater technology offers several options, each suited to different household needs.

GEM helps East Greenwich homeowners navigate choices and install the right system. Here’s what we offer:

Tankless units heat water on demand as it flows through, eliminating stored water entirely. This provides endless hot water while avoiding standby energy loss. The compact design saves valuable space. GEM installs tankless water heaters in East Greenwich for homeowners wanting efficiency and unlimited supply.

Conventional tanks maintain heated water ready whenever you need it. These reliable systems offer proven performance and affordable installation costs. Most East Greenwich families find tank heaters meet their daily needs effectively.

Hybrid systems extract warmth from surrounding air to heat water, achieving remarkable efficiency gains. They keep a tank of hot water available while dramatically reducing energy consumption. East Greenwich homeowners focused on savings often choose hybrid models.

Water Heater Installation FAQs

When should I start thinking about replacing my water heater?

Once your water heater approaches 10 years old, it’s wise to start planning for replacement even if it’s still working. That way you can research options, budget accordingly, and replace on your schedule rather than in an emergency. Many East Greenwich homeowners find that proactive replacement avoids the inconvenience and potential water damage of an unexpected failure.

Can GEM handle water heater emergencies in East Greenwich?

Yes. We provide 24/7 emergency service throughout East Greenwich and the Kent County area. If your water heater fails unexpectedly, leaks, or poses a safety concern, call us immediately. Our technicians can respond quickly to assess the situation and get your hot water restored as soon as possible.

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 East Greenwich 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.

How much can I save with an efficient water heater?

That depends on your current equipment and usage, but the savings can be substantial. Upgrading from an older standard tank to a high-efficiency model typically reduces water heating costs by 10 to 20%. Switching to a heat pump water heater can cut costs in half. For a East Greenwich household spending $50 a month on water heating, that’s real money over the 10 to 15 year life of the equipment.

Should I get a gas or electric water heater for my East Greenwich home?

That often depends on what’s already in your home. If you have natural gas service and existing gas lines to your water heater location, a gas unit typically offers faster recovery times and lower operating costs. If you’re electric-only, an electric water heater or heat pump model avoids the expense of running new gas lines. GEM evaluates your East Greenwich home’s infrastructure and helps you choose the option that makes practical and financial sense.
