Which Kind of Dryer Do You Have?

Propane conversionsGas dryers are set up for natural gas or propane, and switching requires the manufacturer's conversion parts. That work should be done by someone qualified for gas work.
How an electric dryer heatsAn electric dryer runs current through a coiled heating element, protected by a thermal fuse and cycling and high-limit thermostats. It needs both legs of a 240-volt circuit to heat.

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.
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.

No Heat on an Electric Dryer

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.
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.

What Heat-Source Repairs Cost

Here is what published cost guides report for the heat-source parts and other common dryer repairs:

Replacement makes more sense once a dryer is about 10 years old or past half its expected lifespan. Source: Fixr - How much does it cost to repair a dryer?

Ranges are published estimates, not quotes. See the dryer repair cost guide and how long dryers last.

Around Greenville

Most dryer calls in Greenville 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.

There is no statewide plumbing or trade license in Pennsylvania, so any licensing for gas piping work is set by the municipality where the work happens (Philadelphia, for example, issues its own plumber licenses). Source: Contractor Licensing (Pennsylvania Department of Labor & Industry)

In Pennsylvania, you can check a license with the PA Office of Attorney General Home Improvement Contractor Registration Search or report a problem to the Pennsylvania Office of Attorney General.

How to Choose a Dryer Technician Near Greenville

Gas & Electric Dryer Repair FAQs: Greenville, PA

Do you cover Greenville and nearby towns?
The companies on this page are within driving distance of Greenville. Each one sets its own service area, so check the distance shown and confirm your address when you call.
What should I do if I smell gas near my dryer?
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.
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.
Is the helpline a manufacturer?
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.
