Default Re: Gas Dryer Question

Even though the dryer heats up using gas, it still needs to use electricity to run and why you must plug it into an outlet in the wall for it to work. A gas dryer uses much less electricity than an electric dryer:

Electric Clothes Dryer: 6000 watts
Gas Clothes Dryer: 720 watts

While much less electricity is used, the gas dryer still uses electricity to run.
