A customer in Alliance contacted us for propane conversion on two dryers — a GE and an LG unit. They had the conversion kit for the LG and needed both units converted from natural gas to LP gas.
The Problem
The customer had a GE and LG dryer that needed converted to LP gas. They already had the kit for the LG dryer.
Diagnosis
Both dryers were currently configured for natural gas operation and required propane conversion kits to safely operate on LP gas. The customer had provided one kit, and we supplied the necessary components for the complete conversion.
The Repair
- Parts replaced: WE03X23918 — dryer valve and pipe
- Work performed: Installed propane conversion kit in two dryers
- Result: Both units successfully converted to LP gas operation
Is It Worth Repairing?
Converting existing dryers to propane is typically more cost-effective than replacing units, especially when the dryers are functioning properly otherwise. Both GE and LG manufacture reliable dryers that can serve for many years when properly maintained and converted.
Maintenance Tips for Gas Dryers
- Clean the lint filter after every load to maintain proper airflow and prevent overheating
- Check the exhaust vent annually for lint buildup and ensure proper outdoor venting
- Have gas connections inspected periodically by a qualified technician for safety
