Do I Have A Gas Dryer Or Electric Dryer?

by Eric Novotny

If you're looking to buy a new laundry pair or replace an old dryer, you're going to need to know whether you're shopping for gas or electric. The experts at Grand Appliance are here with 2 easy ways you can identify the connection in your home.

1. Check Your Existing Unit

Most units will have a manufacturer sticker near the dryer door. You can find the model number here, and in most cases, the letter E or G will be in the prefix. 

A quick google search can confirm.

2. Check the Power Source

If your dryer is connected to a gas line, it's most likely a gas dryer. 

If it plugs into a larger 220V electrical outlet, it's an electric dryer. 

Note gas dryers will also have a plug, but a smaller, standard 110V plug, familiar with most household electronics.
