Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How long does gas dryer installation take in the Atlanta area?
Most gas dryer installations take 1-2 hours, including disconnection and removal of old dryer, NEW gas line connection, NEW vent duct installation, 110V electrical connection, leveling, and comprehensive gas leak testing and operational testing. Installations requiring new gas shutoff valve or complex venting may take 2-3 hours.
Q: Why do I need a NEW gas line kit? Can I reuse my existing gas line?
You CANNOT reuse your existing gas dryer gas line. This is for safety reasons. Old gas lines can develop micro-cracks, become brittle, or have damaged fittings that may not be visible. A new gas appliance deserves a new connection. New gas line kits are inexpensive ($20-40 at hardware stores) and ensure a safe, leak-free connection.
Q: Why do I need a NEW vent kit? Can I reuse my existing vent duct?
You CANNOT reuse existing exposed dryer vent duct materials. Old flexible plastic or foil duct can be crushed, kinked, or have holes that restrict airflow or create fire hazards. You must purchase a NEW vent kit ($15-30 from hardware stores). We recommend 4" rigid or semi-rigid metal duct for best performance.
Q: Can I use flexible plastic duct for my gas dryer?
Absolutely NOT. Flexible plastic duct is not approved for gas dryers because gas dryers produce higher temperatures and contain combustion gases. Only 4" rigid metal or semi-rigid aluminum duct should be used. Using plastic duct with a gas dryer is a serious fire and carbon monoxide hazard.
Q: Do gas dryers need to vent outside?
Yes, gas dryers MUST vent outside. Gas dryers produce carbon monoxide (CO) as a combustion byproduct. Indoor venting would cause dangerous CO buildup, moisture damage, and fire hazards. Indoor venting of gas dryers is ILLEGAL and extremely dangerous.
Q: What gas line size do gas dryers use?
Most gas dryers use 3/8" gas supply line. Some may use 1/2" depending on the model and local code. Your new gas dryer's installation manual will specify the correct size. Gas line kits are available in 3/8" and 1/2" sizes at hardware stores ($20-40). When in doubt, bring the dryer's installation manual to the hardware store.
Q: What is the difference between natural gas and liquid propane dryers?
Natural gas (NG) and liquid propane (LP) dryers are not interchangeable. Natural gas is supplied through your utility gas line. Liquid propane is stored in tanks. Most Atlanta area homes use natural gas. If your home has LP gas, specify this when ordering your dryer. LP conversion kits are available for some models.
Q: Can you install any brand of gas dryer?
Yes! We install all major brands including Samsung, LG, Whirlpool, Maytag, GE, Electrolux, Kenmore, Speed Queen, Bosch, and all other manufacturers. We can also install dryers purchased from Home Depot, Lowe's, Best Buy, or online retailers.
Q: Do you handle disposal of my old dryer?
Yes! For $19.99, we'll haul away your old dryer and take it for proper recycling. This is optional but highly recommended for complete service.
