When our HVAC gave up the ghost last week, I was panicked about having to go without air conditioning for these 80 degree weeks indoors with our two small children and dog. GEM got out for an estimate super fast and was able to book us for system replacement four days later – other companies were scheduling an estimate until three weeks out! Service was quick and efficient, the installers were knowledgeable and kind, and were more than satisfied with the work completed. Thanks, GEM!

Michael Alberto, electrician, was professional, knowledgeable and friendly. He did a fine job.
Gem has installed a new central Carrier A/c system and then, a month later, a new Carrier split system, Tim in sales is fantastic as has been every technician. We have used GEM now for a/c and plumbing (Moen Flo install followed by installation of a water pressure valve). In every case, service has been excellent. They’re expensive, for sure, but they’re quick and efficient and stand behind their work. Worth the extra expense for quality and follow-up when needed.
I needed emergency help with a leaking water pipe in the cellar and an issue with the toilet tank. Brian was able to complete the repair under diffucult conditions and offered recommendations for the need to replace the aging toilet in the near future.
Prompt service arrived right on time.

How to Know When You Need a New Water Heater Installed

Your water heater is trying to tell you something important.

Here’s how to tell if your water heater is failing. GEM provides Tiverton with honest assessments and quality installations.

Water heaters typically last 8 to 12 years. Once yours approaches that range, performance declines and the chance of failure goes up. Replacing proactively means you choose when it happens.

Moisture around your water heater often signals a slow leak or tank corrosion. These issues only get worse over time. New water heater installation in Tiverton stops a small problem from becoming a flooded utility room.

If hot water temperatures vary unpredictably or the supply runs out faster than it used to, your water heater is losing capacity. Aging components and sediment buildup reduce performance over time.

An inefficient water heater uses more energy to produce the same amount of hot water. If your bills have crept up but usage hasn’t changed, your water heater may be the culprit. A new, efficient model brings those costs back down.

We Install All Types of Water Heaters in Tiverton

GEM offers options to fit different needs and priorities.

Here’s what we install:

Tankless systems heat water on demand, providing endless supply without a storage tank. No standby heat loss means better efficiency. They’re compact too. GEM installs tankless water heaters in Tiverton for homeowners who value unlimited hot water and energy savings.

Tank models store heated water so it’s ready when needed. They’re reliable, affordable, and available in multiple sizes. Most Tiverton families find tank heaters deliver the consistent performance they need.

Hybrids pull heat from the air to warm water, using far less energy than conventional heaters. They have a tank for storage so hot water is always available. Tiverton homeowners focused on efficiency often choose hybrid models.

Water Heater Installation FAQs

Should I get a gas or electric water heater for my Tiverton home?

That often depends on what’s already in your home. If you have natural gas service and existing gas lines to your water heater location, a gas unit typically offers faster recovery times and lower operating costs. If you’re electric-only, an electric water heater or heat pump model avoids the expense of running new gas lines. GEM evaluates your Tiverton home’s infrastructure and helps you choose the option that makes practical and financial sense.

What size water heater do I need for my Tiverton home?

The right size depends on your household’s actual hot water usage, not just your home’s square footage. A family of four in Tiverton typically needs a 40 to 50 gallon tank, while a couple might be fine with 30 gallons. GEM’s technicians consider peak usage times, like when everyone’s getting ready in the morning, and recommend a size that meets your demand without wasting energy heating water you won’t use. We’ll size your system based on how your family actually lives.

What’s the difference between gas and electric water heaters?

Gas water heaters typically heat water faster and cost less to operate if you have natural gas service. Electric models are simpler to install and maintain, and don’t require venting. Heat pump electric models are highly efficient but need adequate space around them. For Tiverton’s antique homes, farms, and waterfront properties, the best choice depends on your existing utilities and installation location. GEM can advise which makes sense for your specific situation.

I’m not sure what size tank my family needs. How do you figure that out?

GEM’s technicians assess your household’s hot water demands during the consultation. We ask about family size, bathing habits, whether you run the dishwasher and washing machine simultaneously, and what your busiest times are. For Tiverton’s antique homes, farms, and waterfront properties, we often recommend 40 to 50 gallon tanks for families of three to four, but we customize recommendations based on your actual usage patterns rather than applying a one-size-fits-all formula.

Are high-efficiency water heaters worth the extra cost?

For most Tiverton homeowners, yes. High-efficiency models cost more upfront but reduce monthly energy bills, often paying for themselves within a few years. Heat pump water heaters in particular can cut water heating costs by 50% or more compared to standard electric tanks. Combined with Rhode Island Energy rebates, the net cost difference shrinks significantly while the savings continue for the life of the equipment.
