The install seems pretty straight forward. Someone installed a conduit
that goes from the dryer area to the gas meter area. Can I do this
myself? I have experience doing electric work - and copper and plastic
plumbing work. I have also installed propane appliance in my old home
and my camper.



Installing a gas line usually means running black pipe. It is not
difficult, but if you don't know how to make a proper joint, it is not
something to play with. You have to know how to measure for pipe, allow for
fittings, buy pipe and have it cut and threaded, install a shut off valve
before the union to the appliance.

What is this conduit you speak of? Are you planning to run the pipe through
it? You will have to put up some pipe hangers also.


Has anyone here installed their own gas dryer in a home with gas service
- but no service to the dryer?


Yep, did a couple of them.
