It doesn't emit carbon monoxide.
Good to know that they don't make gas dryers that malfunction.

Sure, you want to get technical, if it malfunctions, it can emit CM but
the OP simply said "leaking" which I concluded as hot air from the vent,
WHICH does not emit CM during normal cycles. Otherwise, internal vent
kits wouldn't be allowed.

You concluded from inadequate information.
Normal cycles.
There's vague/conflicting information about whether internal vent kits
are allowed on gas dryers.

I accept that your statement is 'probably' correct.
Few people die from carbon monoxide.
Explain that statistic to those who do.



I could not find a specific code, but all the indoor vent kits I saw
said they were for electric dryers. Compared to a furnace, the carbon
monoxide is minimal, but still there.

Supposedly that family from the USA that died in Acapulco was killed
by a gas water heater in the condo. You wouldn't think it would be
easy for that to happen either. A WH doesn't run like a furnace would,
doesn't have anywhere near the gas consumption.
