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.
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.

Angi says gas dryer repairs typically run about $50 to $100 more than comparable electric dryer repairs. Source: Angi - How Much Does It Cost to Repair a Dryer?

No Heat on a Gas Dryer

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.
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.

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.
Moisture sensor and controlsSensor-dry cycles stop when two metal strips inside the drum read dry clothes. Fabric-softener film on those strips can end cycles early or let them run long, and a technician checks them before blaming the control board.

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.

Never turn back on gas that was shut off for safety, and have gas line work done by a licensed plumber or the gas company. Source: Connecticut Public Utilities Regulatory Authority - What To Do If You Smell Natural Gas

What Carrollton Owners Should Know

Most dryer calls in Carrollton 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 piping counts as plumbing in Texas and requires a plumbing license, with an exemption for LP gas installers who hold a separate state LP gas license. Source: Plumbing License Law, Tex. Occ. Code ch. 1301, ยงยง1301.002, 1301.055 (Texas State Board of Plumbing Examiners)

In Texas, you can check a license with the Texas plumbing Public License Search or report a problem to the Texas Attorney General, Consumer Protection Division.

Questions to Ask a Carrollton Technician

  • Can you give a written estimate before ordering parts?
  • Will you check the vent and lint path as part of the visit?
  • Can you look at the washer on the same visit if it is acting up too?

Gas & Electric Dryer Repair FAQs: Carrollton, TX

Which areas near Carrollton do these technicians cover?
The companies on this page are within driving distance of Carrollton. Each one sets its own service area, so check the distance shown and confirm your address when you call.
Is a gas smell from the dryer an emergency?
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.
Is my dryer gas or electric?

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.
