Water, Power and Safety First

A dishwasher must be grounded; if the home wiring lacks a ground or the plug does not fit the outlet, a licensed electrician should correct it rather than modifying the plug. Source: Whirlpool - Dishwasher User Instructions

What Norfolk Owners Should Know
Most dishwasher calls in Norfolk 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.
Nebraska does not license appliance repair technicians at the state level; contractors working on other people's property register with the Department of Labor, and trade licenses such as plumbing are handled by cities and villages. Source: Nebraska Department of Labor: Who Needs to Register
In Nebraska, you can check a license with the Nebraska Department of Labor contractor registration (Search Registered Contractors and Subcontractors) or report a problem to the Nebraska Attorney General, Consumer Protection Division.

- Is your company licensed where my state requires it, and insured?
