Having trouble decoding this one,
Intertherm MGH-075-ABWN-05
Appliance code F0000104279
Date code 880711 < this part is confusing to me. I DID get the numbers right.

I Used the same thing, Larry. it didnt make much sense.
This is supposedly a '90 house, furnace presumed original. I am guessing that both are older. My response is the same, Recommend Licensed HVAC Investigate. I couldnt run the furnace anyway, no gas.

Im going to be in your neck of the woods tomorrow Larry.

Michael,

Based on the date code, my guess would be July 11, 1988 or November 7, 1988.

Welcome, enjoy yourself...

Lake Michigan has been really warm lately and the swimming is outstanding.

There is plenty of fresh fruit and veggies at the farm stands, too.

We grab some local cheese, a baguette and some fruit and enjoy.
