Which Kind of Dryer Do You Have?

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.

Gas Dryer Parts That Fail

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.
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.

Electric Dryer Parts That Fail

Power supplyElectric dryers run on a 240-volt circuit. A tripped breaker on one leg can leave the drum spinning with no heat, which is why a technician checks the outlet before ordering parts.
Drum belt, rollers and idler pulleySqueals, thumps and a drum that will not turn trace back to the belt, the drum support rollers, the idler pulley or the drum glides. These are wear parts and are often replaced together.

Gas Dryer Safety

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.
