No Heat on an Electric Dryer
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. 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.

What Chestnut Ridge Owners Should Know
Most dryer calls in Chestnut Ridge 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.
Gas work licensing is set locally; in New York City, for example, the Department of Buildings requires gas work to be done by a Licensed Master Plumber or by Gas Work Qualification holders under a master plumber's supervision.
