What Star Owners Should Know
Most dishwasher calls in Star 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.
Idaho's Division of Occupational and Professional Licenses does not list appliance repair as a licensed profession; gas piping and gas appliance work falls under the state's HVAC licensing, which includes specialty licenses for those trades. Source: Is My Profession Licensed? - Idaho DOPL
In Idaho, you can check a license with the Idaho DOPL Search for a License or Registration or report a problem to the Idaho Attorney General Consumer Protection Division.
Questions to Ask a Star Technician
- Is your company licensed where my state requires it, and insured?
- Do you also handle the water supply and drain connections, or should I call a plumber for those?
- If the dishwasher is leaking, will you pull the kick panel to find where the water starts?
