Indoor Air Quality Solutions in Providence
The air inside your home should be as clean and healthy as the comfort you feel.
At GEM, we help Providence homeowners improve indoor air quality with solutions that remove allergens, reduce pollutants, and balance humidity for year-round freshness. From air purification systems and whole-home humidifiers to high-efficiency filtration and more, our experts make it easy to create a healthier living environment for your family.
Air Purifiers
Clean air is essential to a healthy, comfortable home in Providence.
Seasonal allergies, humidity, and urban pollutants can affect the air you breathe indoors. GEM’s air purifier solutions remove dust, allergens, bacteria, and odors from your home’s air, helping you breathe easier and feel better year-round. Whether you’re concerned about indoor allergens or simply want to improve your home’s air quality, our team can recommend and install the right system for your space.
Air Filtration
Cleaner air starts with better filtration.
GEM offers advanced air cleaning solutions to help you protect your home and family from dust, allergens, and airborne contaminants. Our air filtration systems—including media air cleaners and UV air cleaning systems—work with your existing HVAC setup to trap particles and neutralize pathogens before they circulate, improving both air quality and system performance.
Humidity Control
Balanced humidity is key to a comfortable, healthy home through Rhode Island’s changing seasons.
Too much humidity can lead to mold and musty odors, while air that’s too dry can irritate your skin, throat, and sinuses. GEM’s humidity control solutions help you find the perfect balance with expertly installed and maintained humidifiers and dehumidifiers that protect your home and your health year-round.
Thermostats
Your thermostat is the command center of your home’s comfort system.
When it’s not working properly, neither is your HVAC. GEM helps Providence homeowners take control of their indoor climate with expert thermostat services, from traditional models to the latest smart home technology. Whether you want to upgrade to a Wi-Fi thermostat for more convenience or need a quick repair, our technicians make it simple to stay comfortable and in control.
Air Handlers
Your air handler circulates conditioned air throughout your living spaces for consistent comfort.
When it’s not working properly, you might notice weak airflow, uneven temperatures, or higher energy bills. GEM’s certified technicians provide expert air handler installation, repair, and maintenance services to keep your system efficient, reliable, and ready for every season in Providence.
Additional HVAC Solutions for Every Providence Home
GEM offers a range of advanced HVAC services designed to enhance efficiency, improve airflow, and deliver precise comfort wherever you need it.
From custom ductwork and zoned temperature control to energy-saving geothermal systems and compact packaged units, our experts bring the latest technology and craftsmanship to every project. Whatever your home’s layout or comfort goals, GEM has a smart, reliable solution to match.
Ductwork
Efficient ductwork is essential to keeping your home evenly heated and cooled.
Leaky, poorly designed, or aging ducts can waste energy and make certain rooms uncomfortable. GEM’s HVAC specialists provide expert ductwork installation and repair services that ensure your system delivers consistent airflow, improved efficiency, and better indoor air quality throughout your Providence home.
Zoned HVAC
Every home has rooms that never seem to stay the right temperature—one too hot, another too cold.
A zoned HVAC system solves that problem by dividing your home into separate temperature zones, each controlled by its own thermostat. GEM installs and services zoned systems that give you personalized comfort and greater energy efficiency. By heating or cooling only the spaces you’re using, you’ll enjoy a more balanced home environment and lower utility costs all year long.
Geothermal
Geothermal heating and cooling uses the steady temperatures below the earth’s surface to efficiently regulate your home’s climate.
It’s one of the most sustainable, cost-effective ways to stay comfortable year-round. GEM’s team designs, installs, and maintains geothermal systems that harness renewable energy for reliable, quiet performance and long-term savings. With minimal maintenance and exceptional efficiency, geothermal offers comfort you can feel good about—for your home and the planet.
Packaged HVAC
If you’re looking for a space-saving comfort solution, a packaged HVAC system could be the perfect fit.
These all-in-one units combine heating and cooling components in a single outdoor cabinet, freeing up indoor space without compromising performance. GEM installs and services a variety of packaged systems ideal for smaller homes, additions, or properties where space is limited.
