What Lexington Owners Should Know
Kentucky American Water (Central Division), which supplies Lexington, reports hardness of about 149-161 mg/L as CaCO3 on average (about 9 grains per gallon) across its Lexington-area treatment plants (moderately hard to hard). Hard water leaves scale on washer inlet screens and heating parts and calls for the right detergent dose, which is worth mentioning when you book a repair.

Kentucky has no license category for appliance repair as such; the Department of Housing, Buildings and Construction licenses trades such as HVAC (whose scope covers installing and repairing heating, burner and cooling systems), plumbing and electrical.

In Kentucky, you can check a license with the Department of Housing, Buildings and Construction License Search and Verification or report a problem to the Kentucky Attorney General, Office of Consumer Protection.
