How Maytag Dishwashers Are Built

Dual Power Filtration combines a microfilter that traps food particles with a four-blade stainless steel chopper that breaks them down for draining. Source: Maytag - Dual Power Filtration

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.
