Amana date code

[MelB]

I need some help on a furnace date code. It is an Amana, appears to be in newer condition, but could have been a well maintained older unit. The info is:

Model #: GUI140B50B Serial #: 9011072092

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

According to Preston's it's a 1992 model as Paul stated. Sometimes manufactures list week/year as well. Could be 20th week of 92 however, 92 is the magic number

Uh uh,

Amana was bought out by Goodman and the code is the same as the Goodman and Janitrol code. The first two letters of the serial number is the year and the second two is the week. In this case, that furnace was manufactured the 3rd week of March 1990 so it's 16 years old. []

What year did Goodman buy out Amana Mike?

I thnk it was the late 80's. I talked to the Goodman folks today and the guy said that the previous serial numbers followed a different pattern.

OT - OF!!!
