Clothes dryers that use natural gas or propane to create heat and dry the clothes. There are parts of Europe where natural gas and propane are prohibitively expensive, and there is no distribution infrastructure for the fuels. Most European clothes dryers are electric, and clothes dryers in general are not particularly common.
I can honestly say I have never heard of a Gas operated dryers. In fact wacher and dryer use more much electrisity they have special plugs.
I've installed easily 200 dryers through my job and I've never encountered a gas powered one. I don't doubt that they exist, but must be a regional thing
They definitely exist in the US but they're not super common in any of the 5 states I've lived in...
That said, I've had one in a storage unit since my father in law passed away in 2015 in California.
Can't find anyone who wants to buy the darn thing because it's so rare for houses or apartments to actually have gas hookups for dryers though.
Do you install them in the USA? You're probably right, it's probably regional based on the cost of gas. In PA, gas is cheap, and the dryers are more efficient so it costs a fraction of what an electric dryer costs to operate. So they are very common, maybe one in three or one in five homes has one.
