Local Notes for Columbus
City of Columbus Department of Public Utilities, Division of Water, which supplies Columbus, reports hardness of about 120 ppm (roughly 7 grains per gallon); moderately hard. Hard water leaves spots and film on glasses and builds up on dishwasher spray arms and inlet screens, which is worth mentioning when you book a repair. Source: Water Hardness - City of Columbus, Ohio
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.
