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.

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.

Dryer Notes for Fairview, OR
Most dryer calls in Fairview 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.
Businesses that install, alter or repair LP gas appliances, piping or vent connections need an LP gas installation license, and the individuals doing the work need a fitter license, both from the Oregon State Fire Marshal; natural gas licensing was not confirmed.

In Oregon, you can check a license with the Oregon Construction Contractors Board Contractor/License Search or report a problem to the Oregon Department of Justice, Consumer Protection.
