What Manhattan Owners Should Know
Most dryer calls in Manhattan 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.
Gas work licensing is set locally; in New York City, for example, the Department of Buildings requires gas work to be done by a Licensed Master Plumber or by Gas Work Qualification holders under a master plumber's supervision.
