    How can I make a safe connection to a gas dryer?
    I just bought a gas/electric dryer, I want to know if I could make a connection in the same way the stove is connected to the tank, I'm planning to have 2 gas tanks, 1 for the stove and 1 for the dryer. Please include any useful suggestions. Thanks a lot

    If you are getting a new tank the people who install the second tank will be happy to professionally hook this dryer up to. You may not need a second tank if the first one is large enough. Best to call out the original company who supplies your propane to get their advice. You may not even need the second tank after all or may want to get a larger tank instead of having 2 tanks. When the propane people are there they will test the connections and hookups to see if there is any leakage. Propane is nothing to fool around with if you are not a professional due to all kinds of flammability issues.
