Hi,

I "inherited" the refrigerator in my condo and have no idea how old it is. I
would like to take advantage of a rebate offer from the power company and
purchase a new fridge. One of their requirements is that the old unit must
have been manufactured prior to 1990.

Is there a way to figure out the manufact. date from the serial number or
another number on the metal plate inside the fridge?

Thanks!

yes a lot of the serial numbers have date codes in them but one thing that would
be real nice here. my crystal ball is not working and you might post the numbers
and brand to let us see them.

One thing here you may look at is the manufactor tag will have in fine print
Manufactored date on it. It will say DOM 03/88 or so.
