Good afternoon! Hoping you all can help me determine the age of this AC.
SN - 2294395473S
The online sources I typically use don’t provide an example like this.
Got a pic of the Date Plate?
How about a pic of the unit itself?
My WAG is the 22nd week of 1994.

Yup, except for the ‘color’ of the label.
Thank you! Glad I wasn’t the only one that was stumped with this one. I assumed 94 as well however try not to assume anything in this business!
2008 - Fedders files for bankruptcy - the company was divided and sold in pieces, and the air conditioning brand phased out in the U.S. by the Singapore company who acquired its assets
2020 - Fedders trademark re-registered in the U.S. with goal of recreating Fedders USA as a unit of FEDDERS Quigan Corp.
I am guessing 2022 based on this.

2022 based on news about mergers and acquisitions. Airwell - Fedders bought by Panasonic along about that time. Definitely not an Airwell product in 94 since Airwell acquired Fedders in 2008. And not with 410a refrigerant. " R-410A refrigerant was first invented in 1991 and was used in residential air conditioners in 1996. It became the industry standard in 2013".
