Same-day appointments, 24/7 emergency response, honest pricing. Call GEM today for air conditioning repair services in Newport.

I was thoroughly impressed with the superb HVAC maintenance service I received from David Santiago and trainee, Kevin today! Before David and Kevin arrived I was very disappointed with having had my original service date rescheduled to what I thought were spurious reasons? In fact David and Kevin arrived after the designated rescheduled date and time today. GEM's communication was excellent throughout and their people seemed genuine and concerned. When David and Kevin arrived it turned the whole situation around. They could not have been more professional and knowledgable! I am now firmly committed to GEM and their Home Comfort maintenance program.

We just had our heating system replaced. We went from forced hot water system to a central heating and air conditioning system done by GEM plumbing and heating company We had Omar and Michael work in our home for 5 days they installed all the ductwork, the furnace and the condenser. These guys were very professional, kind, clean and informative throughout the whole install every day they explaind what they did and what is the expectation for the next day. Today was the last day they walked me through the whole system, how to change the filter how to operate the new thermostat and what to look for when things are not working properly. I say thank you to the whole team from planing to done, all went great to expectations

FAQ

Do you provide same-day AC repair throughout Newport?

Yes. GEM offers same-day air conditioning repair across all Newport neighborhoods, from Bellevue Avenue to the Point to the Fifth Ward. Our large fleet ensures prompt response wherever you are in the city.

Can you work on AC in Newport’s historic homes?

Absolutely. Many Newport properties feature 18th and 19th century construction with retrofitted cooling systems. Our technicians understand preservation considerations and can repair or optimize most installations.

What energy incentives are available to Newport homeowners?

As a Rhode Island Energy partner, GEM helps Newport residents access rebates for energy-efficient cooling equipment. We’ll explain which programs apply and help you maximize available savings.

Why does my Newport waterfront home stay humid?

Ocean proximity creates higher ambient humidity than inland locations. If your home feels clammy despite AC operation, you may have undersized equipment, low refrigerant, or condensate drainage problems. Our technicians diagnose the specific cause.

How often should Newport homeowners schedule AC maintenance?

Annual maintenance is essential for Newport homes. Coastal exposure accelerates equipment wear from salt air corrosion, making regular tune-ups particularly important for catching problems early.
