Hi to all

Prestons list this model from 1989 to 1992 from the serial i would say it is a 1992 unit

Regards

Gerry

Interesting Gerry, according to my cheat sheet Rheem serial numbers have an "F" in the middle followed by the week & year of manufacture. In this case I'd say 46th week of 1983.

I agree with Michael, 1983.

The last two numbers of the second set is your year code.

Prestons has some good stuff in it, but I think the good stuff only accounts for about 50% of what's in there. One also needs the Technical Reference Guide, which I've found to be far more accurate than Prestons.

And the others have it right; it is the 46th week of 1983.
