Switching Your Stove or Dryer to Gas

Faster cooking, cheaper drying — what it actually takes to make the switch from electric.

What the switch requires

If a gas line already exists nearby, the job is often straightforward — extend the line and connect. If not, we run a new line from the meter, which involves more planning around routing and access, especially through finished walls or slab.

Timeline and what to expect

A straightforward hookup near an existing line is often same-day. A full new line extension takes longer once permitting and access are factored in — we'll give you a realistic timeline during the quote, not an optimistic guess.

FAQ

Is gas cheaper to run than electric long-term?

In most cases yes for cooking and drying, though the payback period depends on your local utility rates and installation cost.

Do I need a special outlet removed for gas dryers?

No — gas dryers still need an electrical connection for controls and the drum motor, alongside the gas line.

Can any stove or dryer be converted?

Most appliances are available in gas versions, but existing electric-only appliances typically need to be replaced, not converted.
