Here’s Why You Should Replace Your Water Heater

Your water heater already failed. Here’s what a new one gives you.

The most immediate benefit is obvious: you’ll have hot water again. A new system means showers, dishes, and laundry can happen normally starting today.

Your old system let you down. A new water heater is built to deliver steady, dependable hot water whenever you need it, without the anxiety of wondering when it might fail again.

That old water heater was probably running inefficiently before it quit. Your new system will use less energy to produce the same hot water, which means lower utility costs going forward.

Replacing now means you won’t be dealing with this emergency again anytime soon. A new unit is built to perform reliably for 10 to 15 years with proper maintenance.

This is definitely a five star review and if you had more stars, I would grant those as well. Jordan is an amazing young man. He is respectful knowledgeable and extremely patient. Fixed/updated everything that needed it in a very timely manner and checked everything twice. Now I’m going to request his coming back next time!!

I cannot say enough good things about this company! From getting the initial walk through done, to designing the ductwork, and executing their plan, every step has been amazing. They got the work done incredibly fast, cleaned up after themselves, and offered very high quality systems. Highly recommend!
Outstanding service, prompt courteous and knowledgeable
Team arrived exactly when expected. Knowledgeable and efficient. Richard F was able to diagnosis and fix a problem with our AC in short order. Continue to highly recommend.
The GEM plumbers were fantastic. They hooked up a new spigot and a back flow preventer for the drip irrigation system I will have installed soon. They explained everything, they were fast and respected my home during the job. I highly recommend GEM for your next plumbing repair or upgrade.
Today Nicole from GEM extended the pipe and added a female adapter for the irrigation system. She was speedy and fantastic!
Josh was very pleasant, helpful and efficient. He worked on adding a valve to our boiler. Not sure how to answer other questions.
Called GEM this morning when I discovered that our water heater decided to stop working some time in the night. Ari in the office was extremely nice and was able to schedule a technician to come out same day. John was great, super helpful, and knowledgeable. He explained the system we have and what was going on. He was great with answering my questions and I really appreciated his taking the time to go over the various components of the water heater as well as answering my questions about their membership maintenance program. I look forward to working with GEM moving forward.
Professional installers from start to finish.
Douglas V. was prompt, provided great service and quality work. Douglas is professional and knowledgeable in his field. Highly recommend for HVAC repairs and maintenance needs.
Very nice technicians polite and did a great job tune up on my generator thank you
Aaron came for a 2nd successful visit. This time to figure out the cause of low/no water pressure in some of our H&C setups for 5 bathroom sinks. He left with 3 sinks H&C flowing freely & demonstrated the need for 2 new faucet installations so Hot H2O could be restored to the remaining sinks. Much appreciated as others had immediately started talking about replacing pipes without investigating less complicated solutions. As before, Aaron was a professional pleasure to have in our home & pricing will be the only holdup for us to continue with the faucet installations. Due to him, I have high hopes for the GEM electrician arriving next week & the HVAC maintenance later this month.
Courteous friendly service people, give complete information about work needed.
Those guys were awesome. They were very respectful and professional.
