Anyone have updated info on these, mine is old and don’t make sense anymore…
Bradford White water heater SN EF10718168
Looks like June of whatever year E is, I really don’t think its a 1988 model since it is on a new house.
I suspect its a least 2-3 years old though.
thanks!
June of 1988 or 2008…
2008
