> [@jszczesny](#): > > can anyone help out on the age of this water heater pplease. thanks:p Looks like December of 1999… Bradford White: The year of manufacture is noted by the first letter of the serial number, the month is the second letter. The decoding is based on the following format: Year Decoder: G = 1990; H = 1991; J = 1992; K = 1993; L= 1994; M= 1995; N= 1996; P= 1997; S= 1998; T= 1999; W= 2000; X= 2001; Y= 2002; Z=2003; A= 2004; B=2005 Month Decoder: A= JAN; B=FEB; C=MAR; D= APR; E=MAY; F= JUNE; G=JULY; H= AUG; J= SEPT; K=OCT; L= NOV; M= DEC. ---
