Local Notes for Westfield
Most dryer calls in Westfield 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.
Under state law, working on gas piping on the load side of the meter requires a master HVACR contractor license or another state license whose scope includes gas piping. Source: NJ Division of Consumer Affairs: State Board of Examiners of Master Plumbers rule notice
