I have an electric electrolux dryer and my new house is set up for gas with a regular outlet. Is there a way to still hook it up in the house with gas ?

You cannot convert a gas dryer to electric. Do you a natural gas line for your furnace? A plumber can easily T into the mainline and run a drop for your dryer. This would be cheaper than buying a new dryer. If you do not have natural gas in your house you will need to buy a new dryer.

No. the new dryers have to have a 220V power. You first have to replace or add a 220 outlet on the wall that matches the connector on the dryer.

Depends ... what is 'normal house voltage' where you live?

If you are installing a new electric dryer in the USA, typically, they operate at 220 Volts. If there is no special outlet at the place where you want to use the dryer, you will have to have an electrician install the proper gage wire and outlet for you. Expect to pay up to $200.00 or more for this installation from the house main panel to the dryer location.

If there is a gas line at the location, you may want to consider exchanging your electric for a gas model.

Model No. GLGH1642FS has a gas dryer.
Model No. GLEH1642FS has an electric dryer.
Model No. GLGT1031FS has a gas dryer
Model No. GLET1031FS has an electric dryer.
Model No. FGX831FS has a gas dryer.
Model No. FEX831FS has an electric dryer.

Get a stack model that suits your needs and compatible with your home's utilities setup.
Gas models are more common with most people because most electric models
require 240v outlets that many houses don't have.

Hi,

If you are having problems with your gas dryer not heating the most common problem is that the ignitor goes bad. Even though it glows sometimes it is still not working properly.

Your plug is for 220v and a regular wall outlet is 110volts. It simply will not work. You will burn out your dryer, and place yourself at risk of electrocution.

You don't need to 'rewire the house'. You will need a 240 volt circuit ran for the dryer to work though.

Hi, This an electric dryer or gas?
Do you get any heat at all?
Asking so I can assist you. Please let me know
Thanks

Hi, Did you put red and black wire to the outer posts? White wire ti center and green to ground screw on cabinet? Dry will run on 120V but needs 240V for heat. Make sure there is 240V to the outlet as well.
Hope this helps. If so, please feel free to rate my answer so that I know how I am doing.
