[SML] Gas or Electric for Dryers

[Richard Niederberg]

Dear Stephen,
Along with the heat comes unburned natural gas, the products of
combustion, or some mix of those two. Forcing the air/lint mixture
through a water filter creates back pressure on the flow, which often
leaves lint in the dryer or hose.
