"I initially selected West Shore Home to do my window replacement principally because their salesman so much less pushy than the others that I requested estimates from. I am allergic to a hard sell! But their excellent service continued throughout the project. I needed a total of more than 20 windows replaced in a 70-year old home. Quite a job! They scheduled the installation well in advance so that I could plan my schedule. They came exactly on time on the appointed day. Everyone on the crew was cheerful, courteous, and knowledgeable. When it turned out that some of the materials sent from the factory had minor defects, they not only offered to replace all the defective panes but even showed me a couple of defects that I had not noticed. And they returned not once but twice to be sure that everything was perfect before they called the job complete."

Disabled Veteran Owned & Operated HVAC & Plumbing company proudly serving Eastern Tennessee. Why LJS Mechanical? When Ethan decided to transition out of the Army, he went back into HVAC & Plumbing full time. With over 5+ years of industry experience, and a company combined total of over 15 years we like to be confident in knowing there is not much we haven’t seen. However, we started to notice a trend that only seems to get worse every day in the industry, lack of quality and integrity. There has also been a large increase in big-name companies with large marketing budgets that do not have the customer’s needs in mind. At least twice a week we would come across unfinished work, sloppy shortcuts, or stories of overpriced and oversold quotes. Out of frustration, it pushed us to create LJS Mechanical. We believe in doing the hard work no one else wants to do, being efficient, transparent, and doing it right the first time at the best possible price. Here at LJS Mechanical, we will never push you for a service you do not need, inflate prices for personal gain, or leave a job without our clients satisfied. We started this company for you, the customer, and we won’t quit until you are happy with the service we have provided!

"Great. Very knowledgeable and friendly. And didn’t try to do work that wasn’t necessary."

Water Heaters questions, answered by experts

There are many issues that can cause cold showers, but the most likely is a problem with your water heater, especially if other fixtures also don’t get hot water. If it’s just your shower not getting hot water, you likely have a broken or damaged shower cartridge. You can replace this yourself or hire a plumber to do the work for you if you’re not comfortable working with plumbing.

No, you’ll need to drain the tank before changing a water heater element, as the water heater element sticks through the side of the tank and uses a gasket to prevent water from pouring out. However, you don’t always need to drain it completely. If you’re only replacing the upper heating element, you can drain the tank until the water line is below the element. If you’re replacing the lower element, you’ll need to drain the whole thing.

Heat pump water heaters, also known as hybrid water heaters, are the most efficient types of water heaters—both in terms of carbon emission and energy efficiency. This type of water heater utilizes as little as half of the energy of a traditional water heater while releasing no direct emissions. Tankless water heaters are also extremely efficient, although slightly less so than hybrid heaters.

If you want instant hot water and to reduce water waste while improving convenience, a hot water recirculating system is worth it, especially if you find your hot water heater is not hot enough. These systems can save thousands of gallons of water each year so you don't have to wait for hot water at faucets and showers. The upfront investment can be high, especially for systems requiring additional plumbing, but the long-term savings on water bills and added comfort make them a worthwhile upgrade.

In most municipalities, a license is not mandatory for water heater installation or replacement. However, we strongly recommend hiring a licensed plumber or water heater installer to handle the work. Licensed installers are far less likely to make a mistake during the installation, which means paying for the experience decreases your risk of a leak and other issues. You can use our state licensing tool to find out if a contractor you’re considering in your area holds a plumber’s license.
