Look Great for Less Money

• Save time and money: A natural gas dryer heats up faster than an electric one.
• Dry two loads for the price of one: you can dry two loads of laundry with a gas dryer for about the same cost as drying one load with an electric dryer.
• Reliability: With fewer moving parts than an electric dryer, natural gas dryers are less likely to break down, and they last an average of 12 years.
• Your Clothes Benefit too! Faster heat-up and shorter drying times mean it's gentler on fabrics, so your clothing lasts longer. Better temperature control means fewer wrinkles. And, moisture sensors in gas dryers prevent over-drying of fabrics (virtually eliminates static cling).

Get the best value with your gas dryer by following these helpful tips:

• Use the fast-spin cycle on your washer to remove as much water as possible from laundry before loading the dryer.
• Clean out your dryer's lint filter after every load.  This will improve air circulation and save energy.
• Use your dryer's cool-down cycle.  This saves energy by using the residual heat in the dryer to finish drying the clothes.
• Dry full, but not oversized loads.  This is more energy-efficient than drying smaller loads or overloading the machine.  Air needs to circulate through the laundry freely.
• Be sure to inspect your dryer vent periodically to ensure it is not blocked.  This will save drying time and energy.
