No response from anyone? Well, since I have some stalkers who check on my every post, I'll post here hoping that someone can help us here.

By the way, I would need the serial numbers rather than the model numbers. But I'm sure there are some Preston's people (hereafter, "PP") who can help us. My Preston's was never returned by a former employee, so I'm no longer a PP, and I haven't gotten around to replacing it since I never really liked it or used it much.

Okay, PP's where are you? Help us out here!

Hi to all,

Russel, unfortunately Preston's doesn't help here as they don't cover electric furnaces unless they are part of the internal coil of a heat pump.

This appears to be a stand alone Electric furnace

Regards

Gerry

Well, darn. What good are PP's then?

So if we can get the serial number, I can probably help. I typically don't care if they are gas, electric, or solar. Solar?

The furnace is a stand alone unit. There was very limited information on the name plates. There was no serial no. I normaly don't really date the furnaces on a regular HI but I have about 46 of them to date for a property management company. They all fall under the above mentioned model numbers. I tried to find the manuf. on the web but could not locate it.

Perhaps I will see what I can get of the blower motor and assume that the furance date is some what close to the motor componet.

Hi to all,

Paul, it appears that Nortron is a brand name of Broan, check this link out :

http://www.broan.ca/product-category...egoryID=100066

I'd give them a call to see if they can give you the production dates

Regards

Gerry
