What our Clients think about us
Your satisfaction is our priority.
What Is Gas Line Installation for Gas Dryers?
Gas line installation for gas dryers is a focused service that provides your dryer with a dedicated, code-compliant gas connection, typically including:
Checking meter capacity and existing gas piping for available load
Sizing and routing a gas line from a suitable point to the laundry area
Installing a properly located shutoff valve and appliance connection point
Connecting the dryer with an approved flexible gas connector (when requested)
Pressure testing and leak checking the new line before use
Done properly, this helps prevent:
Weak or no heat due to undersized or poorly routed gas supply
Leaks from improper fittings or old connectors
Code issues that can cause problems during inspections or future home sales
Why Choose Active Plumbing
Conversion-friendly: We regularly help homeowners switch from electric to gas, including adding new lines where none existed.
Laundry space aware: We design gas connections to be safe, accessible, and compatible with tight laundry spaces and stacked units.
BTU-based sizing: We size lines for the dryer plus your other gas appliances, not just whatever pipe is “already there.”
Natural gas & propane capable: We can install gas lines for natural gas and many residential propane setups, where appropriate.
Vent & safety conscious: While the gas line is our focus, we also pay attention to dryer location, clearances, and venting path, and can coordinate vent work as needed.
Immediate Actions (What to Do Now)
Note the brand, model, and BTU input of the dryer (or the unit you plan to buy).
Decide where the dryer will sit: existing laundry area, new wall, garage, closet, or stacked location.
Make a list of other gas appliances in your home (furnace, water heater, stove, fireplace, etc.).
If you already have a gas stub near the dryer, take note of any rust, kinks, old connectors, or DIY-looking work.
Call Active Plumbing at (702) 438-3357 and ask for gas line installation for gas dryers; we’ll schedule a visit to evaluate your gas system and laundry layout.
Do not attempt DIY gas line work. Improper gas piping or connectors can cause leaks, fire, or explosion—always use licensed professionals.
Common Situations Where a New Gas Dryer Line Is Needed
You’re converting from an electric dryer to gas and don’t currently have a gas stub in the laundry area.
The laundry space is being relocated or remodeled and the dryer is moving to a new wall or room.
The existing gas stub or connector looks rusted, damaged, or obviously outdated.
An inspector or contractor has flagged the current dryer gas setup as unsafe or non-code.
You’re adding a second dryer (e.g., for a large family or accessory unit) and need an additional gas supply.
Gas System & Laundry Area Evaluation
We inspect your gas meter, main gas piping, and existing appliances, then review the laundry room layout and dryer location to see where and how a new line should be run.
Load Calculation & Line Sizing
We calculate the total BTU demand on your gas system (including the dryer) and determine the appropriate pipe size and route so your dryer and other appliances receive adequate gas.
Gas Line Routing Design & Estimate
We design a code-compliant route to the dryer location (through walls, ceiling, crawlspace, or garage as needed) and provide a clear, itemized estimate for the gas line, shutoff, and any related work.
Gas Line Installation & Shutoff Setup
Once approved, we shut off gas safely, install the new gas piping using approved materials and supports, and set a properly located shutoff valve and connection point for the dryer.
Pressure Test, Leak Check & Dryer Connection
We pressure test the new line, check for leaks at all joints, and—if we’re hooking up the appliance—connect the dryer with an approved flexible connector and verify that the gas control is tight.
Final Operation Check & Homeowner Guidance
We restore gas, test-fire the dryer to confirm proper burner operation, show you the shutoff location and basic safety steps, and answer any questions about ongoing use and when to call for service.
What’s Included
A typical gas line installation for a gas dryer may include:
Evaluation of your existing gas system and laundry area
Sizing and routing design for a gas line to the dryer location
Installation of new gas piping and a code-compliant shutoff valve
Pressure testing and leak checking of the new line
Connection and test-firing of the dryer with an approved flexible connector (when requested)
Basic safety and usage guidance for your new gas dryer gas line
(Exact scope depends on your home layout, appliance, and existing gas piping.)
Costs & Timelines (What to Expect)
Pricing and timing for a gas dryer gas line installation depend on:
Distance and path from the gas source to the laundry area
Whether we’re working with open framing vs. finished walls/ceilings
The BTU rating of your dryer and whether existing lines need upsizing
Access conditions (e.g., garage, crawlspace, closet, stacked laundry, etc.)
Whether we’re also installing or converting the dryer itself
We’ll provide a clear, upfront estimate that covers:
Labor and materials for the gas line
Any additional upgrades (new valves, replacement of old connectors, etc.)
Estimated project duration and scheduling details
Insurance & Claims Help
A professionally installed gas line for your dryer helps with:
Reducing leak and fire risk associated with poorly installed or aging gas connections
Avoiding inspection issues when selling or refinancing your home
Supporting warranty and code compliance for the appliance and installation
We can provide:
Itemized invoices and work descriptions for your records
Documentation you can keep with appliance manuals or show future buyers/inspectors
Risks of Waiting (Why Act Now)
Sometimes a gas dryer project is more complex than just “hook up the hose”:
The existing gas system may be at or near capacity once another appliance is added.
Old or DIY gas work can hide unsafe tees, unapproved connectors, or missing shutoffs.
Laundry locations in closets or tight spaces require special attention to clearances and venting, in addition to the gas line.
A new gas dryer may need specific connector sizes, regulators, or clearances per manufacturer instructions.
If we find that more extensive work is needed, we’ll explain what and why before proceeding.
Methods, Materials & Quality Standards
Approved gas piping and fittings appropriate for residential dryer installations
Proper support and protection of gas lines through walls, ceilings, or crawlspaces
BTU-based line sizing to support consistent dryer performance
Pressure testing and leak detection before returning the system to service
All work performed by licensed Nevada plumbers/technicians following local code and best practices
Frequently Asked Questions
Can you add a gas line if I’ve only ever had an electric dryer?
Yes. We regularly add new gas lines to laundry areas for homeowners converting from electric to gas.
Do I need to buy the dryer first?
Having the model and BTU info helps with sizing and connection details, but we can still plan the gas line with typical dryer BTU ranges and adjust final hookup once your unit is on site.
Can I reuse my old gas flex connector?
If you already have one, we’ll inspect it—but in many cases, it’s safer and smarter to install a new, properly sized, approved connector.
What if I smell gas near my dryer?
Treat it seriously: ventilate if possible, avoid flames/sparks, leave the area if the smell is strong, and contact your gas utility or emergency services. After the situation is made safe, call us to inspect and repair.
