What Our Customers Are Saying
100% Satisfaction Guarantee
We found roots growing in an old, 2-foot, cast-iron section of my main drainage pipe.
He used a blade attachment and cleared the obstruction to the best of his ability. Then left me with a quote to have the 2-foot section of cast iron replaced with PVC—which is only a small section that penetrated the foundation of my home.
I was very happy with the service, and most importantly the transparent approach which allowed me to make informed decisions.
Nate’s customer service skills were out of this world. I advise GEM Plumbing to invest in this young man.
I had two whole house central AC units replaced (19 yrs old) and their team and other parts of the company (Plumbling, electrical, etc.) worked together to do an unbelieable installation in very hot conditions. My hats off to your company and we are so impressed that I contracted GEM to install a whole house 25kw generator.

When to Consider New AC Installation
These warning signs tell Richmond homeowners when replacement makes better financial sense than continued repairs.
Watch for these indicators it’s time to upgrade.
When your AC ran fine for years but now struggles to maintain comfort, your cooling needs may have outgrown your system. Home additions, insulation changes, or increased heat load create capacity problems. Undersized equipment runs constantly without achieving desired temperatures. Proper sizing during replacement ensures adequate capacity for your Richmond home’s actual requirements.
Track what you’re spending on repairs. When annual repair costs approach 50% of replacement cost, or when you’re facing another expensive fix on aging equipment, replacement makes better financial sense. Multiple repairs indicate declining reliability. New installation ends the repair cycle and provides dependable performance with warranty protection.
Older systems rated below 13 SEER consume far more electricity than modern equipment. Current minimum standards start at 14 SEER, with high-efficiency models reaching 20+ SEER. Lower SEER ratings mean higher monthly costs. Upgrading to efficient equipment typically pays for itself through energy savings over the system’s lifespan.
Equipment using R-22 (Freon) faces expensive repairs as this refrigerant is phased out. Replacement R-22 costs hundreds of dollars per pound and becomes scarcer annually. Rather than investing in obsolete refrigerant, upgrading to modern equipment using current R-410A refrigerant makes better long-term sense for Washington County homeowners.

Air Conditioner Installation FAQs
Do rural Richmond properties need different AC considerations?
Rural settings may have different electrical service capacities and property layouts affecting installation. GEM evaluates your specific situation and recommends appropriate solutions for your Richmond location.
How far in advance should I schedule installation?
Spring scheduling (April-May) offers the most flexibility. Summer demand increases wait times. However, our large fleet typically allows installation within days even during peak season.
Can GEM install AC if I have well water?
Absolutely. Well water systems don’t affect AC installation unless you’re considering water-source heat pumps, which GEM can discuss during consultation if appropriate for your situation.
What if my property has limited electrical service?
We evaluate your electrical capacity during consultation. If upgrades are needed, GEM coordinates electrical work as part of your installation project, handling everything for you.
Does GEM service all of Washington County?
Yes. Our service area covers all of Washington County including Richmond and surrounding rural communities. Distance doesn’t affect our commitment to quality service.
