We know you’re busy so we offer 1 or 2 hour arrival windows and courtesy calls when we’re on the way. You save more because we don’t charge full price for additional (add-on) repairs you may want us to look at while we’re in your home. You get an honest opinion and not an “up-sell” by a plumber looking for a commission check. You are comfortable with the repairs and the price because we’ve explained our diagnosis along with all your options.

"Our furnace install was done professionally. The installers were great. I do not blame any of our problems on the installers. It is their corporate office and lack of concern for issues a customer has that will affect any future customers. They simply do not care. The day after our furnace install we received a text that stated "Anderson Heating, Cooling and Plumbing, and sister company A New Image Heating and Cooling are offering a FLASH BOGO! Valid this week! The Furnace is FREE when you install an AC! Call today for details.". I called immediately because we had expressed an interest in both heat and AC. I asked why we were not offered this BOGO when they knew we were interested in both and the sale was good for the week of our installation. We would have taken this deal and gotten both. I was told by the Mentor office that they were unaware that the sale text was going out and asked if I could give them a few days. The following Monday I did receive a call back and was told they would install our AC for $4,000. The original estimate was about $6,000. So they were offering to take $2,000 off to install the AC. My furnace was $5,695. Is this a deceptive advertising ploy to get another $4,000 out of us? I disagreed with this offer and was given a contact at their home office in Grand Rapids MI. I sent the info to Geoffery Kartes who is their Director of Digital Marketing in MI. That was four weeks ago and I have heard NOTHING from anyone. I even called Mr. Kartes and still did not get a call back. This is apparently a "pass the blame" situation where no one is willing to take responsibility. Associates in the Mentor office agreed with me, one of their associates even encouraged me to escalate my displeasure because he said this has happened before, yet nothing has been done. Maybe if they ignore me I will go away. I will not. I wanted to let potential future customers know this happened. I am also letting the BBB and the Ohio AG know. Thank you for taking the time to read this."

Water heater repair or services FAQs

Flushing your water heater helps prevent mineral deposits from building up. It removes sediment that would otherwise insulate the heating element and slow heat transfer. Proactive maintenance ensures that your water heater maintains a consistent temperature while operating efficiently and extends its lifespan so you have a long-term, dependable hot water source.

Plan on flushing your water heater once a year. If you have hard water with high calcium levels, consider flushing it twice a year to keep it running smoothly. Regular flushing helps prevent sediment buildup, ensures that reliable hot water is readily available, and extends the life of your water heater.

If you notice unusual noises from your water heater, inconsistent water temperatures, rusty or cloudy water, leaks near the drain valve, or higher utility bills, it's time to flush your water heater. These signs indicate that sediment buildup is affecting your heater’s performance. Professional flushing service can help restore your water heater’s efficiency and prevent further issues.
