How Whirlpool Dryers Are Built
Electric Whirlpool dryers run on 240 volts from two breakers or fuses, one feeding the motor and one the heating element, so a single tripped breaker can leave the drum turning with no heat. Source: Whirlpool Product Help - Dryer is Not Heating

What Firestone Owners Should Know
Most dryer calls in Firestone 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.
Colorado's Division of Professions and Occupations has no appliance repair license; its trade licenses cover plumbing and electrical work. Source: Occupational Professions (Colorado DORA Division of Professions and Occupations)
State law treats fuel gas piping separately from plumbing and has the State Plumbing Board adopt a Colorado fuel gas code for inspecting gas piping installations; hooking a gas appliance to an existing service connection falls outside the statute's definition of gas piping.
