Ricky, I think it is the same as:

Rheem & Rudd & WEATHERKING Somewhere in the middle of the serial number will be a letter (typically F). The following four numbers are the week and year.

In your case, 32nd week of 2001.

Hey, Rick.

For that type of serial number, how the digits are spaced is important. If it's spaced thusly:

EB5D302 F3201 07830

then it's probably the 32nd week of 2001.

However, the "B5" could also be February of 1985, 1995, or 2005.

If there's a cooling condenser, check the date on that as well because they often are the same brand and similar codes and dates.

Use other clues to help, too, such as a construction date of the home, a renovation date of the home, etc.

Russel, I've not seen what you describe.

I'm 99% sure that when the numbers/letters are all together like Ricky's picture it is indeed like I said:

Somewhere in the middle of the serial number will be a letter (typically F). The following four numbers are the week and year.

In his case, 32nd week of 2001.

That's an odd serial number format but the explanation is directly above it: "Manufactured for H.C.I." With that information, whomever manufactured it left the spaces out of the serial number, so I would, indeed, go with F3201 as being the manufacture date.

Most people ignore the spaces, but they can be significant in helping decode the serial number, as can any preprinted numbers before or after the stamped numbers.
