I guess you technically could but it would be much, much cheaper to just buy a gas fired dryer.
Sorry to say, a conversion like this would not be either cost effective nor practical. They are very different, you are talking about electric elements versus actual flames. There are venting and fire safety issues to consider. You may have heard of dryer conversion kits or of others that have converted a dryer. If you have, what they are referring to is converting a natural gas dryer to a propane dryer or a propane dryerto anatural gas dryer. This is a relatively simple process unlike what a conversion of gas to electric or vice versa would consist of.
Two options:
A plumber with a gas ticket.
The only practical way to do that would be to sell the electric clothes dryer and use the proceeds toward purchase of a gas dryer. Even if it was possible to convert the dryer the cost would be prohibitive versus a new dryer. If you mean converting the building, then you would need to have natural gas plumbing installed, and you would need an outlet that matches the voltage of the new dryer.
Not worth the expense and trouble. It's cheaper to go and buy an electric one.
Chances are there is more than 1 outlet connected to the 110volt circuit you are looking to convert. So therefore the easy answer is No. The 240volt dryer circuit must be a dedicated single circuit for the dryer only.
A gas clothes dryer will never become an electric dryer. To convert from an old gas dryer to a new electric model, the only major thing is to make sure there is the right kind of electric power outlet. Nearly all dryers require a large 30A 230V plug. Your gas dryer had only a regular 15A 117V plug, just light the other regular outlets in the house. Grounding is essential (!) for an electric dryer. If the ground is not there you will eventually get a horrible shock from the washer or dryer. A few clothes dryers (usually apartment sized models) use only the standard outlet, but expect a drying time of 2 hours plus for a small load of clothes.
No. An electric dryer has no burner or combustion controls.
No, a gas dryer uses gas, which cannot be converted into electricity with a simple adapter.
Hair dryer. I had the same question,weird.
Yes, a gas dryer is better than an electric dryer. A gas dryer becomes much hotter so therefore your clothes dry faster. Also natural gas as piped to homes costs less per kilowatt-hour than the equivalent amount of household electrical power. However the initial purchase cost of a gas dryer is much more than an electric dryer and the installation costs cost ofa gas dryer can be much higher too because it needs a piped gas supply as well as electricity.
either.
First, you should look and see if it is a gas or an electric dryer. A gas dryer will save you more than an electric dryer. Then, you need to see if it is a full size or a compact dryer model.
gas because gas has less parts
