Can&#;t decide on gas or electric? The first thing to do is check your dryer connections. All dryers use an electric motor to tumble clothes and an electric fan to distribute heated air. The difference is the source of heat generation. Some use natural gas and some use electricity.

Your decision to purchase a gas dryer versus an electric dryer will depend on whether you have a gas line in your laundry area. If you want to change your dryer&#;s fuel source, you&#;ll need the help of a professional contractor.
What&#;s the best gas dryer or electric dryer for you? Here are a few benefits to consider.
Length of Duct Run
Standard dryers require an exhaust vent to release heat and moisture to the outside of the house. For optimal performance, ductwork from the dryer to the house exterior should be kept under 60 feet with minimal elbows (turns). If the duct run is too long or has too many turns, the dryer cannot properly exhaust, affecting drying times and performance.
Standard Vented Dryers
Most dryers vent from the rear (centered on bottom). Some dryers can be vented from the side or bottom. To achieve this, a knock out is made on the side or bottom and the rear vent is sealed. Side venting is useful in closets or other areas where space is restricted. It could also enhance drying performance by potentially eliminating elbows and shortening duct runs. Not all dryers can be side or bottom vented, so it&#;s best to check prior to purchase.
Non-Vented /Condensation Dryers
In some cases, venting to the outside is impossible (ex: condominiums, apartments and townhomes). For these settings, a condensation dryer may be appropriate. Condensation dryers do not require exterior venting. Heat and moisture are routed into a chamber, condensed into water, and deposited into a container which must be routinely drained. Overall, standard dryers are preferred to non-vented models for 2 reasons: condensation dryers are more expensive and drying times are significantly longer.
Door Swing

Dryer doors are reversible. In most cases, it&#;s convenient to have the dryer door swing away from the clothes washer to accommodate quick clothes transfer. Another option is to consider a top load dryer, which provides a unique ergonomic alternative.
Stackable Laundry
Stacking laundry can save space for additional cabinetry or folding tables in the laundry room. They can be a perfect fit for areas where space is a concern, such as a closet.
For many years, stacked laundry units were offered as 2-in-1 models. The washer and dryer were connected & shared the same control panel. This style is still available but in very limited selection. Now, washers and dryers are designed with the ability to stack with the aid of stack kit (purchased separately). This allows for flexible install options.
Built-in Laundry
Stackable, front load washers & dryers have controls on the front and are flat on top. This allows for installation beneath a folding counter, or inside cabinetry to create built-in appearance and make room for more work space and storage.
Some manufacturers, such as ASKO and Miele, offer models that accept a custom door front. In this application, a cabinet-maker builds panels to the required specification, which match the room decor. This allows the washer and dryer to be installed and integrated into existing cabinetry for a flush, seamless appearance.
Laundry Pedestal
For someone who wants easier access to a front load washer or dryer, the addition of a pedestal is ideal. Pedestals are designed to raise the washer or dryer 7&#;-15&#; from the ground. A pedestal can also serve as a storage drawer.
