What Florence Owners Should Know
Most dryer calls in Florence come down to the same handful of parts: the vent and lint path, the heat source, the belt and rollers, and the door and start switches.
Alabama does not issue a separate appliance repair license, and the state's heating, air conditioning and refrigeration contractor law expressly excludes work on household appliances, residential refrigerators and ice machines. Source: Code of Alabama 1975, Section 34-31-18 et seq. (Alabama Board of Heating, Air Conditioning & Refrigeration Contractors)
Gas fitting work in Alabama requires a state gas fitter license from the Alabama Plumbers and Gas Fitters Examining Board, which tests competency before anyone performs, supervises or contracts gas fitting. Source: About the Board - Alabama Plumbers and Gas Fitters Examining Board
