If the furnace is indeed 8 years older than the home, would you say anything about it?

Got an ANSI date?


According to http://hisearch.org/York.aspx York changed thier coding in 2004. The W as the first character would seem to follow the older units coding ('97,'01)

but the F as the second character would seem to follow the post 2004 coding. ('05,'05)

Did they look 13 / 9 years old?

hmmm...

If it were indeed older than the house, I would make verbal mention of it, but not in the report.

No ANSI date.

I came across this in my notes: " Newer systems: 1ST NUMBER AFTER THE 1ST LETTER IS THE YEAR. Example: W0D6228542 is a 2006 model"

I think both are 2005 which would be consistent with the home age. Thanks.
