How can I tell the age of a MagicAire HVAC unit from the serial number?
Wednesday, April 22, 2020
The first two numbers of the serial number on the data plate, after a single letter, are the year of manufacture for MagicAire products. So, for example, W040625437 was manufactured in 2004.
For the age of another brand or manufacturer, go to our blog post How do I determine the age of my air conditioner?
