How Gas and Electric Dryers Differ

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.
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.

No Heat on a Gas Dryer

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.
Igniter, valve coils and flame sensorGas dryers light the burner with a glowing igniter, open the gas valve with a set of coils and confirm the flame with a sensor. When the igniter glows but the burner never lights, the valve coils are a frequent culprit.

What a Technician Checks on an Electric Dryer

Drive motorIf the dryer hums but the drum does not move, or it starts only after a push, the motor or its start circuit is tested. On many models the motor also turns the blower wheel, so airflow and tumbling fail together.

If You Smell Gas

Never turn back on gas that was shut off for safety, and have gas line work done by a licensed plumber or the gas company. 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: Princess Anne, MD

Are you affiliated with any dryer brand?
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.
Is my dryer gas or electric?
A gas dryer has a gas pipe and shutoff valve behind it and plugs into a regular household outlet. An electric dryer plugs into a large 240-volt outlet and has no gas line. The rating label inside the door also says which it is.
Is a gas smell from the dryer an emergency?
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.
