How can I tell the age of an Aire-Flo air conditioner from the serial number?
Saturday, June 23, 2018
The second two numbers in the serial number are the year of manufacture. So the Aire-Flo data plate shown below indicates the unit was manufactured in 2014. Aire-Flo heat pump and air conditioning condensers are manufactured by Lennox specifically as replacements for R-22 refrigerant systems, and they are shipped charged with nitrogen.
Also, see our blog post How can I tell the size in tons of an Aire-Flo air conditioner or heat pump from the model number?For the age of another brand or manufacturer, go to our blog post How do I determine the age of my air conditioner?
And to figure out what all the other numbers listed on the condenser data plate mean, go to our blog post How do I understand the air conditioner or heat pump condenser label (data plate)?
