What Centerton Owners Should Know

Arkansas has no separate appliance repair license, and household appliances are listed as exempt equipment under the state HVACR licensing law, though exempt work must still meet HVACR rules and any local permit and inspection requirements.

In Arkansas, you can check a license with the Arkansas Department of Health Protective Health Codes licensee search (plumbing and gas fitter licenses) or report a problem to the Arkansas Attorney General, Consumer Protection Division.
