Gas Dryers
Gas dryers bring powerful, high-heat efficiency to any laundry room, whether you store yours in a utility closet, the basement or a mudroom. These are one of two choices users have when it comes to these must-have appliances: electric or natural gas fuels. That's the same kind of gas used in firing up a range in your kitchen or an outdoor heater in the backyard. These home appliances are some of the most popular, and they're considered a must-have in every home. Learn more about what sets gas dryers apart from the competition.
Are Gas Dryers Faster Than Electric?
It's true that gas dryers tend to be faster and more powerful than their electric counterparts, ensuring that your clothes are heated and finished as quickly as possible. Some models may even have "quick dry" options to get your clothes finished quickly for moments when you need to get that one outfit clean and ready to go, fast. While they work fast, that doesn't mean these devices are power-consuming monsters: check out ENERGY STAR-rated versions that can help you save on utility costs on every load you run. You'll use less fuel for a device that ends up saving energy over time.
Keep in mind that not every home is made for gas dryers: you'll need a gas line that leads to your house. If your home doesn't have a connection, you can always call your gas company and see how expensive it is to install it— you might be able to make up the costs in the long run by saving on fuel costs. Otherwise, looking into electric laundry appliances might be the best option for you.
Smart, Speedy, Steaming: Fresh Features To Look For
While classic gas dryers work to keep clothes dry, newer models are made with exciting features to make your clothes look better than ever from the moment a cycle stops. Explore cycle options like steaming: these do part of the job of a professional steam iron. You'll find wrinkles lifted thanks to steam that moves deep into fabrics, as well as a lack of static and odor once the load is finished. Meanwhile, smart machines bring Wi-Fi connectivity to each load: add your clothing, then start and stop from anywhere. You'll know exactly when your clothes and linens are finished with the help of connected apps, ensuring that laundry day moves on as quickly as possible. Other exciting features include quick spins, fabric sensors and more.
For true intelligence, look for gas dryers that link up with your washing machine. They'll be able to communicate with each other, allowing your dryer to use the correct cycle for the clothing you've just washed. That's a guesswork-free process. But if you'd rather find a budget-friendly model, we're well-equipped to keep your household running with one of those, too. Explore our collection both online and in-store or call our team of specialists if you've got any questions about which one is right for your needs.

Q&A Summary
When Can I Find Gas Dryers On Sale?
Gas dryers are always on sale at Abt for bargains that can fit any budget. We even have a low price guarantee (if you find a better deal at an authorized retailer, we’ll match it). But if you’re truly committed to the lowest prices available in the season, Black Friday, Labor Day and Memorial Day sales are your best bet.
Electric vs Gas Dryers: Which Is Better?
Generally, gas versions cost more upfront but are more efficient to use over time, while electric models are just the opposite. But if you need to install a fuel line, those costs could negate all savings. In terms of quality, non-electric models both heat up and dry clothing quicker, too. It all depends on how comfortable you are with installing a fuel line if you don’t already have one. Some say that electric versions last (slightly) longer than their competitors.
Are There Washers and Dryers In One?
There are, and we sell them. These combo units are built for compact homes that don’t have space for a full laundry room (or a stackable). However, they can’t hold as much as your classic machine and they take a long time to wring water from clothing, and they’re only powered by electricity.
Where Can I Buy Coin Operated Gas Dryers?
We sell them here, online and in-store, and ship locally and nationwide. Brands like Whirlpool, Speed Queen and GE all sell through Abt. You can even find stackable models.
