What Alamo Heights Owners Should Know
Most dryer calls in Alamo Heights 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.
Texas has no separate appliance repair license; under the Plumbing License Law, appliance dealers and their employees may install and service appliances (other than water heaters) without a plumbing license when hooking up to existing openings with a code-approved appliance connector, while other gas or water piping work generally requires a plumbing license. Source: Plumbing License Law, Tex. Occ. Code ch. 1301, §1301.053 (Texas State Board of Plumbing Examiners)
Gas piping counts as plumbing in Texas and requires a plumbing license, with an exemption for LP gas installers who hold a separate state LP gas license. Source: Plumbing License Law, Tex. Occ. Code ch. 1301, §§1301.002, 1301.055 (Texas State Board of Plumbing Examiners)
Questions to Ask a Alamo Heights Technician
- If a part has to be ordered, how soon can you come back to finish?
- Can you look at the washer on the same visit if it is acting up too?
- Will you check the vent and lint path as part of the visit?
