How Gas and Electric Dryers Differ

What they shareBoth types use the same drum, belt, rollers, motor and blower, and both depend on a clear vent. Many no-heat calls on either type start and end with the vent.
How a gas dryer heatsA gas dryer lights a burner with a hot-surface igniter, opens the gas valve through a set of coils and uses a flame sensor to confirm ignition. When the sequence fails, the drum keeps turning but the air stays cool.

Angi says gas dryer repairs typically run about $50 to $100 more than comparable electric dryer repairs. Source: Angi - How Much Does It Cost to Repair a Dryer?

What a Technician Checks on a Gas Dryer

Thermal fuse and thermostatsA thermal fuse is a one-time safety device that opens when the dryer overheats. A blown fuse usually points to a blocked vent, so a good technician replaces the fuse and finds out why it blew.
Door switch and start circuitA dryer that does nothing when Start is pressed may have a failed door switch, start switch, fuse or control board. Checking power at the outlet comes first, since an electric dryer needs both legs of a 240-volt circuit to heat.

Gas Safety Around the Dryer

If you smell gas strongly or are unsure, leave the building and call the gas company or 911 once you are outside; do not use light switches, appliance controls, phones near the odor, or anything that could spark. Source: Connecticut Public Utilities Regulatory Authority - What To Do If You Smell Natural Gas

A dryer exhaust system carries combustion gases including carbon monoxide out of the home, so HUD rates a detached, missing or blocked dryer exhaust as a life-threatening deficiency; a CO alarm in the laundry area is recommended with gas dryers.

Gas & Electric Dryer Repair FAQs: Tucson, AZ

Is the helpline a manufacturer?
No. We are an independent directory and are not affiliated with any appliance manufacturer. Our helpline connects you with a participating independent technician. If your dryer is still under manufacturer coverage, contact the brand first.
Can a gas dryer be repaired by any technician?
Many appliance repair companies service gas dryers, including igniters, valve coils and burners. Work on the gas supply line itself may require a licensed gas or plumbing contractor depending on your state.
What should I do if I smell gas near my dryer?
Yes. Do not operate switches or the dryer. Leave the house and call your gas utility or 911 from outside, and only call a repair company after the utility says it is safe.
