- The brand, model and serial number from the label on the edge of the door or the side of the tub opening
What Norwalk Owners Should Know
Most dishwasher calls in Norwalk 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.
Ohio has no state license for appliance repair; the Ohio Construction Industry Licensing Board licenses commercial contractors in plumbing, hydronics, refrigeration, HVAC and electrical, and residential contractor work is generally overseen locally.
