Whirlpool Dishwasher Lines and Features
How Whirlpool Dishwashers Are Built
Whirlpool uses a removable two-part filter, an upper assembly that twists out a quarter turn and a lower filter beneath it, and some models instead use self-cleaning filters that rely on water pressure. Source: Whirlpool - How to Clean the Dishwasher Filters
An air gap is required where local code mandates one or when the drain connects lower than 20 inches above the floor; otherwise the drain hose is run in a high loop under the counter. Source: Whirlpool - What Is a Dishwasher Air Gap

What Moscow Owners Should Know
Most dishwasher calls in Moscow 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.
