Mike Lamb Posted April 15, 2004 Report Posted April 15, 2004 Can I get any help on the age of a Peerless steam boiler, #G-1461. Owner claims he installed it 1994. Looks more like 25 + years. Thanks. Mike, Chgo.
hausdok Posted April 15, 2004 Report Posted April 15, 2004 Hi Mike, Did you get the serial number of the unit? The date code is normally there. ONE TEAM - ONE FIGHT!!! Mike
Mike Lamb Posted April 15, 2004 Author Report Posted April 15, 2004 I only found one plate. I was unable to find the BTU's or any serial number. The boiler had a light green jacket which just said older than ten years to me.
Neal Lewis Posted April 16, 2004 Report Posted April 16, 2004 Mike, Look for a serial/date code stamped on the gas valve or on the side of the pressuretrol, although both of these components could have been replaced. I have a light green Peerless steamer in my house from 1986.I believe the date would be somewhere on the label if it was 1994. Was there a Energyguide on the boiler; they first appeared about the early to mid 80's Sometimes, the old style cast iron LWCO can make a boiler look older than it is.
