Here’s Why You Should Replace Your Water Heater

Your old water heater has to go. Here’s what moving forward actually gets you.

That aging unit has been burning through energy for years. Today’s water heaters deliver the same hot water output while consuming significantly less fuel or electricity, cutting your utility costs from day one.

The days of wondering whether you’ll get a warm shower are finished. A new system provides consistent, reliable hot water on demand, eliminating the anxiety of living with failing equipment.

Whatever you’ve spent patching up your old water heater, that expense ends now. Replacement puts a stop to those recurring service calls and gives you years of trouble-free operation ahead.

A modern, efficient water heater improves more than your daily comfort. It adds tangible value to your property, something future buyers will notice and appreciate when the time comes.

Don’t Trust Your Home & Family to Just Anyone.

Although, we had to drop a lot of money today. We are very appreciative of David Santiago and Colin D. David explained everything that was wrong with our system. Even tried to find a way to fix the disaster. Even though we both knew, it wasn't worth it. That's where Colin come in and broke the heart breaking news but helped us find options and worked with us. With that we are VERY thankful for you both! GEM has a life long customer. Thanks guys.

Just completed AC tune up with Nick R. Courteous and knowledgeable service. Thorough and friendly. Arrived on time and explained his intent. Highly recommend!

Richard F. was the first Gem employee I met. My original appointment was to have the air conditioner yearly service (central air). After opening the side panel Richard showed me the black mold and rust inside the unit. NO ONE had ever opened the side panel during a yearly service appointment. There were years of built up black mold. I will NEVER use the companies I have used in the past. Richard presented 2 options. He was not pushy. He simply presented the information to me and answered all of my questions. Richard is respectful both professionally and personally. We scheduled the appointment for the following day (removal of the old unit and condenser and installation of the new.

The following day Richie and John arrived at 7:45AM. Leo then arrived. They worked from the time they arrived (7:45AM-5:00PM) until they completed the job. They are respectful both professionally and personally. They thoroughly explained all the work they did and gave me information that I did not know previously. Again, we get the a/c serviced yearly and no one had ever explained anything. They cleaned up after completing the work. I mean immaculately.
Robert Pressberg
He came over on Easter Sunday and helped us with a big problem that could not wait. He explained everything in detail. He stayed until the problem was resolved. Really nice guy.

Water Heater Replacement FAQs

How long does a water heater replacement take?

Typical installations run two to four hours from start to finish. We can often get you scheduled for same-day service. Tankless conversions may require additional time if gas line or venting work is involved.

Should I choose a tank or tankless water heater?

That depends on your household’s demand, available space, and what you want to spend. Traditional tank units have lower upfront costs and serve most homes well. Tankless systems cost more initially but supply unlimited hot water and typically outlast tank models. GEM’s plumbers can talk through what makes sense for your North Providence home.

What rebates are available in Rhode Island?

Rhode Island Energy provides rebates on qualifying high-efficiency water heaters, including heat pump units. GEM helps North Providence homeowners determine which systems qualify and handles the rebate paperwork on your behalf.

Does GEM remove my old water heater?

Absolutely. Disconnection and removal of your existing unit is included with every replacement. You won’t need to arrange separate disposal.
