We recently purchased a GE gas dryer and haven't had any issues until last night. We noticed when turning the dryer on that you could smell gas in the laundry room. I cannot find a leak and the smell dissipated after turning the dryer off. I tried again later on and same thing. I tried again this morning and there wasn't a smell. Any thoughts on what might have caused this? We are obviously concerned about the possibility of gas being emitted into our home

I don't know. hook up should have been by a qualified installer and properly inspected and tested.
be very careful. your unit may be under warranty. please inquire about a free service call before using it again.
dryers blow air to the outside so it vents to the outdoors whenever it is running. there may be a small leak and the odour cold be vented which would account for no odour.
be safe and update your home's insurance.
