If You Smell Gas
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.

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.

Local Notes for Sherwood Manor
Most dryer calls in Sherwood Manor come down to the same handful of parts: the vent and lint path, the heat source, the belt and rollers, and the door and start switches.
Installing, repairing and maintaining gas piping and approved gas appliances requires a state heating, piping and cooling license (such as the G-1/G-2 gas license or a broader B, D or S license) issued through the Department of Consumer Protection.

Connecticut's Department of Consumer Protection does not list a separate appliance repair license; work on gas piping, approved gas appliances and refrigeration systems falls under its heating, piping and cooling license categories.
