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 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.

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?

Gas Dryer Parts That Fail

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.
Gas supply and shutoffA gas dryer needs an open shutoff valve and a sound flexible connector. Technicians check the supply before the burner assembly, and leave connector replacement or line work to whoever your state allows to do gas work.

No Heat on an Electric Dryer

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.
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.

What Port Angeles Owners Should Know

Most dryer calls in Port Angeles 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.

Washington's state plumber certification law defines plumbing as potable water, waste, medical gas and similar systems and does not list fuel gas piping, so gas line work is not part of the state plumber certificate. Source: Chapter 18.106 RCW, Plumbers

In Washington, you can check a license with the L&I Verify a Contractor, Tradesperson or Business or report a problem to the Washington State Office of the Attorney General, Consumer Protection.

Questions to Ask a Port Angeles Technician

  • Will you check the vent and lint path as part of the visit?
  • If a part has to be ordered, how soon can you come back to finish?
  • Do you work on gas dryers, and who handles anything involving the gas line?

Gas & Electric Dryer Repair FAQs: Port Angeles, WA

Who can work on a gas dryer?
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.
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?
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.
