Well nobody really has any idea about your skill level. If your going to try it yourself which is not good depending on if your Bob Villa Type background is a little weak then open the window. Have the gas companies Phone number set as a contact in your phone and the Call the Handyman. Don't Do It. If you have to ask it's probably not your cup of tea. Hope to see you posting that everything worked out.

Why gas to electric? Interesting! Great Sale on the Dryer?

P.S. if you try it do it during prime time business hours so help can make it to you quickly!

After many many years of electric dryers, we got a gas dry at our last house. Loved it! It saved us a lot of money, we just wish we had gas in our part of The Villages.

For a little bit of added confidence, I would put the plug on the line, then open the valve and put soapy water all around the plug. If there is any leakage, you will see bubbles. Then close the valve. Double protection.
