This is what I have, Patrick:

Heat Controller Inc.
The first # is the plant, the 2nd and 3rd are the year, and the following two are the month.

I see a lot of concern over exact year of mfg for equipment. I don't understand why the the need if you can easily estimate the year by type of install and controls. But if you really must know, then take a look at a control module. It usually has the date and version stamped or tagged on it. If there is no control module then it's a pretty safe bet it doesn't owe the owner much.
