A dryer is one of the least energy efficient appliances in a home and can easily account for 10% or more of energy usage. However, the concern over its cost is often somewhat exaggerated, as neither electric nor gas dryers cost more than $100 to $150 a year to operate â depending on local electricity and gas prices. This makes the appliance much cheaper to run than, for example, an electric water heater or refrigerator.
