Samsung Dishwasher Lines and Features
How Samsung Dishwashers Are Built
Most Samsung dishwashers dry by condensation on the cooler stainless steel tub walls, while some plastic-tub models add a Heated Dry option. Source: Samsung US - Samsung dishwasher does not dry dishes
Samsung requires the drain hose to have an air gap or high loop, and a unit sitting on its own drain hose is the most common cause of drain trouble after installation. Source: Samsung US - Samsung dishwasher is not draining

What Lexington Owners Should Know
Most dishwasher calls in Lexington 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.
South Carolina does not issue a license specific to appliance repair; mechanical work such as plumbing, heating, air conditioning and refrigeration is licensed by the Contractor's Licensing Board for commercial-scale jobs and by the Residential Builders Commission for residential HVAC and plumbing.

In South Carolina, you can check a license with the SC LLR License Lookup or report a problem to the South Carolina Department of Consumer Affairs.
