What Hartsville Owners Should Know
Most dryer calls in Hartsville 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.
South Carolina does not issue a license specific to appliance repair; mechanical work such as plumbing, heating, air conditioning and refrigeration is licensed by the Contractor's Licensing Board for commercial-scale jobs and by the Residential Builders Commission for residential HVAC and plumbing.
