What is the cost of running my dryer?
Gas dryers cost approximately $60 more to purchase initially, but natural gas is usually less expensive than electricity, so gas dryers will cost less to operate. As of June 2014 natural gas was approximately 68 cents per Thermal unit.
Depending on your utility,the cost is between 32 and 41 cents in an electric dryer, or 15 to 33 cents in a gas dryer.
So let's assume an average cost per load is $0.30. If you do 3 loads a day it will cost about $0.90 per day, if your dryer is working properly.
