What Makes Bosch Dryer Repairs Different
Bosch's current U.S. dryers are 24-inch ventless models that need no ducting and pump condensed water out through an included drain hose. Source: Bosch - Wash and Dry #LikeABosch 24" Compact Laundry Brochure
Heat pump models can use an optional condensate tank instead of the drain hose; a drain indicator lights when the tank is full or the hose is kinked or blocked. Source: Bosch - Use and Care Manual, Heat Pump Dryer WTW87NH1UC

Wisconsin has no separate appliance repair license; plumbing licensing covers appliances connected to water supply systems, including water heaters, but exempts minor repairs to appliances and repair or replacement of gas or electrical control valves and devices.

In Wisconsin, you can check a license with the Wisconsin DSPS LicensE credential lookup or report a problem to the Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection (DATCP), Bureau of Consumer Protection.
