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

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.
Airflow and the ventA long dry time is most often an airflow problem. A technician checks the lint screen housing, the duct behind the dryer and the exhaust hood outside before replacing any heating parts, because a restricted vent can make a healthy dryer look broken.

No Heat on an Electric Dryer

Heating elementElectric dryers heat with a coiled element. If the drum turns but the air stays cool, the element is checked for continuity along with the thermostats and fuses that feed it.
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.

Local Notes for Norman

Most dryer calls in Norman 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.

Natural gas piping work requires a Natural Gas Piping mechanical license or a plumbing license issued by the Oklahoma Construction Industries Board. Source: OAC 158:50 Mechanical Industry Rules (Oklahoma Construction Industries Board)

In Oklahoma, you can check a license with the Oklahoma Construction Industries Board Licensee Search or report a problem to the Oklahoma Attorney General, Consumer Protection Unit.

Questions to Ask a Norman Technician

  • How often do you repair your brand dryers, and do you carry common parts on the truck?
  • Can you look at the washer on the same visit if it is acting up too?
  • Do you work on gas dryers, and who handles anything involving the gas line?

Gas & Electric Dryer Repair FAQs: Norman, OK

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.
How do I know if my dryer is 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.
Which costs more to fix, gas or electric?
The common heat-source parts on both are modestly priced, and labor is similar. Gas dryers add ignition parts that electric models do not have. Our cost guide lists published ranges for both.
