Is a gas dryer better than an electric?
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.

How do you switch a gas dryer to an electric?
no, unless you can find a gas powered generator to make your electricity, then yes. No!! In the electric dryer there is a heating element ... for a gas dryer there is a heating box where a gas flame has to exist in order to heat sufficiently for the clothes to dry. Configuring an electric dryer to gas is impractical, and simply an unwise thing to even attempt. The conversion process would cost more than just going out and purchaseing a gas dryer.

Does ge gas dryer have a safety to turn off gass if power goes out?
Yes ….Your dryer, like many hot water heaters and gas ranges has a device called a "thermal coupler" This device relies on the heat from a pilot light to keep it on while there is power to the thermal relay. Now, If the thermal coupler fails or if the pilot light goes out, The relay shuts the gas off at the valve to prevent gas from filling the house. The difference between the range, heater and dryer is that the dryer has the safety built in to disable the gas for total power failure. The range and heater can still run with out electricity.
