What Kilgore Owners Should Know
Most dishwasher calls in Kilgore come down to the same handful of parts: the filter and drain path, the drain pump, the inlet valve, the door latch and the heating parts.
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, ยง1301.053 (Texas State Board of Plumbing Examiners)
In Texas, you can check a license with the Texas plumbing Public License Search or report a problem to the Texas Attorney General, Consumer Protection Division.
Questions to Ask a Kilgore Technician
- Do you also handle the water supply and drain connections, or should I call a plumber for those?
- Will you check the filter, drain hose and disposal connection before replacing the pump?
- If a part has to be ordered, how soon can you come back to finish?
