What do you all say the age is of a Roberts Gordon gas Forced Air, Conventional furnace Model # GL-120A and Serial # 7802. Thanx
Never heard of them. Possibly a Canadian brand or a major/minor local brand. But if I were to guess, I would guess “old.”
Yes, as the CD report states that they last made them in 1969, I was just hopeing to get a closer date of it . thanx
Then I would report that it is “really old” instead of just “old.” :margarit:
How about “Exceeded normal life expectancy”
Roberts Gordon is a company in Buffalo New York on Williams Street.

Think the Furnace is still working Roy ?
after 45 years it might be in need of a small over haul .
Fascinating thread! I have a Roberts Gordon furnace in my home - Model GL-120A, SN 8435, like the original poster in 2006. My understanding is that it was about 5 years old when I bought the house in 1982, so the vintage might be about 1977 or so. Still running strong, although I should re-bush the blower shaft again. I re-bushed it in 2003, but the original Dayton kit #2A757 that I used then isn’t available now, so I have to improvise.
What I was looking for was schematics and manuals, but no trace on the internet. I did contact Roberts Gordon, but they claim not to have anything - they make industrial heating equipment now, been through several buyouts, etc.

How would pictures help with my inquiry?
So inspectors and others have a visual confirmation or cross reference for the information you seek. (which you never really asked for; you just stated your limitations)
