Default Age of American Standard

Does anyone have the "Code" to determine the age of American Standard Furnaces?

James,

Sorry, Out of the thousands of models numbers....

As usual, Prestons does not have any model numbers that start with TXC.

I'm finding TUC & TUX, but no TXC. Are you positive on the number?

hi to all,

James,

sorry I can't help you with the year either, but the model number suggests that this is an indoor coil for a heat pump system not a furnace.

Regards

Gerry

5=2005
4=2004
3=2003
2=2002
Z=2001
R=2000
P=1999
N=1998
M=97
L=96
K=95
J=94
H=93
G=92
F=91
E=90
D=89
C=88
B=87
S=86
Y=85
X=84
W=83
U=82(seventh digit)
