"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

The chemicals in a water softener can wear down the anode rod in the heater and shorten its life span. However, for most people, the benefits of the softener outweigh this potential drawback.

Have a plumber inspect the anode rod annually for damage, as replacing the anode rod is far less expensive than replacing the entire water heater.

It’s important to find the type of water heater that fits your needs and budget. Depending on the type of water heater, size, brand, and the type of energy you use to heat the water, costs range from a few hundred dollars to several thousand. Some of the most common types of water heaters include:

  • Electric: $600–3,500

  • Gas: $700–$2,700

  • Propane: $700–$2,500

  • High efficiency: $1,500–$3,000

  • Indirect: $1,200–$3,500

  • Hybrid heat pump: $1,200–$3,500

No state requires you to vent an electric water heater. Other installation requirements for water heaters will vary, though, depending on the state and local jurisdiction in which you live. Some places require permits, while others don’t. Some may force you to place the appliance a certain distance from any walls or other appliances, while others don't. When you find a local professional to install a water heater, this expert will ensure you follow all the local regulations.

No. Expansion tanks must be installed on the supply side (where heated water flows out) of the boiler. There’s also a list of other requirements for most boilers, including being above the pressure relief valves, being on the inner side of any circulator, and more. Your installation manual should have more information on expansion tank installation requirements and what sort of tank the system is made for.

A tankless water heater with a flow rate of 10 GPM should replace a conventional 50-gallon water heater. To avoid a surprise cold shower or two and to keep your energy costs in check, it's important to replace a conventional tanked water heater with the equivalent tankless water heater. Your household size and the number of hot-water-using devices you use at once can help you determine the best-size tankless water heater.
