What DuPont Owners Should Know
Most dryer calls in DuPont 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.
Washington's Department of Labor & Industries issues an appliance repair (07D) specialty electrician certificate that covers like-for-like repair and replacement of self-contained appliances such as ovens on an unchanged circuit, but excludes branch-circuit wiring and plumbing work.

In Washington, you can check a license with the L&I Verify a Contractor, Tradesperson or Business or report a problem to the Washington State Office of the Attorney General, Consumer Protection.
Questions to Ask a DuPont Technician
- Is your company licensed where my state requires it, and insured?
