Local Notes for Montpelier
Most dryer calls in Montpelier 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.
No separate Vermont appliance repair license was identified, but anyone who installs, inspects or services natural gas or propane systems, including appliances, must hold a gas certification from the Division of Fire Safety. Source: Vermont Division of Fire Safety: Natural and LP Gas Certifications
