How to Determine the Age of a Bradford White Water Heater

Photo: Data tag details on a Bradford White water heater installed in Tucson, Arizona.

Serial No. DH9477405 decodes to D-2007 and H-August

[Click to enlarge any image]

Bradford White water heater age is encloded as two letters in water heater's serial number as follows:

Current Bradford White water heater date code format: YM234567..

First letter = year of manufacture

Beginning with A = 1964 or A = 1984 r for newer water heaters made after 2003, A = 2004

Ending with Z = 2003 or M = 2015 etc.

Second letter = month of manufacture

Later model water heaters may replace letters with an actual year and month encoding as numeric digits.

Beginning with A = January and ending with M = December

Example: Bradford White water heater serial number ZJnnnnnnn = 2003, September

Note: in the month code the company encodes the month in A - M and does not make use of letters I, O, Q, R, U or V)

Jetglas water heaters made by Bradford White use the following date enoding:

YM1234567 encoding the year and month alphabetically using A-M for month (skipping the letter I) and a series of year-series for alphabetic letters.
