Erby Posted September 22, 2015 Report Share Posted September 22, 2015 Yup, that corner of the data plate has mysteriously disappeared. Click to Enlarge 30.56 KB I can make out the 9 first digit and the 09 month digits but not the 2nd year digit. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Amaral Posted September 22, 2015 Report Share Posted September 22, 2015 Well, CD book says first pair of numbers is year.. (You knew that already)... I see the '93' in the New York comment... Any other data available about the house? Photos? It's probably an early to mid 1990's unit Erby... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erby Posted September 22, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2015 Thanks Rob. It's an older house so that doesn't help with the age. I'm leaning towards early 90s but the seller insists it's only 16 years old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottpat Posted September 22, 2015 Report Share Posted September 22, 2015 I would just say that I'm unable to read the age on the data plate but that the owner indicated it was 16 years of age, which I would agree with if not more. Based on that the system is past its expected life and any further life is just good fortune! Solved that problem! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Katen Posted September 22, 2015 Report Share Posted September 22, 2015 No numbers on the indoor coil or housing? Compressor serial number? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Dirks Jr Posted September 22, 2015 Report Share Posted September 22, 2015 Numbers on a data plate say when the unit was manufactured. They don't necessarily say how long its been in service. Surely not usual, but possible these things can sit in a warehouse for extended time before being installed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kurt Posted September 22, 2015 Report Share Posted September 22, 2015 One pays tax on inventory. Stuff sits around for a year, maybe 1 1/2 years at most. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erby Posted September 23, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 23, 2015 Compressor number not readable. Indoor equipment was 1994. It's old. Be ready to replace it anytime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
