What to know about homes in Smyrna
Town water and lime softening
The Town of Smyrna treats its own water, drawn from the Stones River and J. Percy Priest Lake. The plant uses lime softening, which the town says improves the removal of iron, manganese and hardness.
The town's 2025 water quality report gives a hardness range of 55 to 75 mg/L, or 3.2 to 5.8 grains per gallon, and suggests that range for any appliance that asks for a hardness setting.
Natural gas from the town
Smyrna Natural Gas, a town department, supplies natural gas in Smyrna and La Vergne. Adding a gas appliance, such as a tankless water heater, a range or a standby generator, can call for a larger gas line. Sometimes it also means a conversation with the utility about the meter, and we'll tell you if yours does.
Power from Middle Tennessee Electric
Middle Tennessee Electric (MTE) provides electric service in Smyrna. For a panel upgrade or a new service, the utility's part of the job gets scheduled along with ours, since power has to be disconnected at the meter.
Permits from the Department of Building Safety
The Town of Smyrna Department of Building Safety enforces the town's building, plumbing, mechanical, gas and electrical codes. It reviews plans, inspects work and issues certificates of occupancy. Some electrical permits, including those for HVAC equipment, can be applied for through the town's online portal.
How Smyrna grew
Smyrna was mostly farmland until an Army air base opened in 1941. The town kept growing after the base closing was announced in 1970, with its population rising 47 percent by 1980, and the Nissan plant brought another wave in the 1980s.
A house built in those years is now more than 40 years old. At that age, original water heaters, supply lines, ductwork and electrical panels are often due for a close look.
