Gas vs. Electric: How Each One Heats

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 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.

Fixr puts electric dryer repairs at roughly $50 to $400 and gas dryer repairs at roughly $100 to $450. Source: Fixr - How much does it cost to repair a dryer?

What a Technician Checks on a Gas Dryer

Drive motorIf the dryer hums but the drum does not move, or it starts only after a push, the motor or its start circuit is tested. On many models the motor also turns the blower wheel, so airflow and tumbling fail together.
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

Drive motorIf the dryer hums but the drum does not move, or it starts only after a push, the motor or its start circuit is tested. On many models the motor also turns the blower wheel, so airflow and tumbling fail together.
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

Local Notes for Lewisburg

Most dryer calls in Lewisburg 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)

Pennsylvania has no statewide license for appliance repair or for most construction trades; contractors doing home improvement work must register with the Attorney General, and some municipalities license trades such as plumbing.

Gas & Electric Dryer Repair FAQs: Lewisburg, PA

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.
Do you cover Lewisburg and nearby towns?
The companies on this page are within driving distance of Lewisburg. 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.
Are you affiliated with any dryer brand?
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.
