Can anyone help me figure out the manufacture date of this AO Smith water heater? Labstein (Les Abstein, CMI) January 30, 2016, 6:25pm #10 1972. Some manufacturers, including Rheem, made it easy by incorporating the month and year built into the first 4 digits of the serial number. For instance, the picture below shows that this Rheem water heater was manufactured in December of 1991 (1291). Other manufacturers use different formats, but in a similar fashion.

A.O. Smith Water Heater Age Decoding Tips

A.O. Smith Water Heater Age Determination - reader comment: (May 11, 2012) AO Smith employee said: To tell the age of any AO Smith water is the first 4 numbers.

The first 2 are the year and the second 2 are what week it is. I work in the Q.C. Department there and make the serial plates all the time. Hope this information helps some people out - A.O.S. employee.

Current AO Smith water heater date code

Ser# YYWW123456 example 1604123456 decodes to YY=Year=2016 and WW=Week No. 04 of that year.

However on some AO Smith water heaters, particularly older models, you'll see a confusion of letters and numbers in the serial number that may be decoded into manufacturing date as shown below.

Older AO Smith water heater date codes

Ser# YYWW123456 - exampl: Ser# 9902123456 decodes to year 1999 and the week 02 - or early January. This A.O. Smith water heater date of manufacture code has been used since 2008.

Ser# MMYY1234567 - example: Ser# 03991234567 decodes to March 1999 this older style AO Smith water heater date code decodes as shown where MM = month and YY = 2 digit year.

Ser# MYY1234567 - example Ser# B0112344567 decodes to February 2001: the first letter encodes the month using A - N for January - December (the letter I is not used) and the second two digits encode the year.

Ser# FB00A123456 decodes to F=Factory code, B=month code using A - N for January - December (the letter I is not used) and the next two digits encode the year.
- example: Ser# GB92-03123456-789 decodes to Factory ID=G, Month=B or February, Year=92 or 1992.

Ser# N69-C-YY-12345 decodes provide year in the pair of digits shown as YY - found on water heaters from the 1970s

Other AO Smith water heaters that may be sold under different brand names include Glascote water heaters, National water heaters & Perma-Glas water heaters.

Question: troubleshooting the Combustion Chamber Temperature Sensor - TCO thermal switch on an AO Smith Water Heater

(Apr 9, 2018) john said:
Hello, I have a bit of a situation on my hands and I would really appreciate some help. Our Promax Plus water heater suddenly stopped working a few days ago so we ran to lowes and purchased a universal thermocouple.

When we took out the old thermocouple I noticed that it had a TCO while the universal one did not, no big deal i thought so i installed the new universal thermocouple and the pilot fired right up, literally.

This was yesterday. Well for the rest of the day the heater stayed on, again literally, but i figured it was normal since it was a new thermocouple. Fast forward to today and the furnace was still turned on. Turned on like when someone is taking a shower or is using hot water. Now i know this isnt normal and very dangerous so we turned off the heater and turned the gas to off.

So to summarize the heater stayed on after we replaced the thermocouple with a universal one with no TCO. Could the lack of a TCO in the new thermocouple have caused this or is it something else?

Reply: TCO Temperature Cut-Off thermal reset switch on an A.O. Smith Water Heater.

Below is A.O. Smith corporation's description of their thermal cutoff sensor on the thermocouple:

COMBUSTION CHAMBER TEMPERATURE SENSOR - The C3 Technology water heaters will come equipped with a thermal cutoff (TCO) device that is integral with the thermocouple. Temperature cutoff points range from 160°C to 200°C depending on model. The TCO is an automatic reset thermal switch.

When activated it will open the thermocouple circuit and shut off the main and pilot burner gas flow. The pilot would have to be relit after the TCO has had sufficient time to cool down (sensor is below 120 degrees F).

The TCO performs two primary functions:

• In the event of flammable vapor ignition inside the combustion chamber, it senses the corresponding increase in temperature and shuts off gas flow to the main and pilot burners.

• If excessive temperatures inside the combustion chamber indicate poor combustion due to a clogged LDO screen or inadequate air for combustion, the TCO will shut off gas flow to the main and pilot burners.

John, from the above you'll see that the absence of a TCO on a thermocouple would not be likely to force a burner to stay on. I think more-likely the thermocouple you installed is defective or is not properly installed. I've found, for example, occasional operating problems when the end of the thermocouple that screws into the gas valve is not properly seated.

Watchout: The situation you describe is unsafe. I would leave the heater off pending proper repair.

Reader follow-up:

I really appreciate your response. The heater has been off since yesterday and wont be turned on again until the problem is fixed. The installation itself was actually something that I was going to double check.

Someone suggested the thermostat be replaced, is a faulty thermostat a possibility? This seems unlikely since it was working fine before.

John

When a gas fired water heater burner won't turn OFF indeed I suspect a bad temperature sensor or thermostatic control. That's because the thermocouple has a more narrowly-defined job: confirming that there is a proper gas flame. The thermocouple is intended to shut OFF the burner IF there is no gas flame - so as to avoid continuing to pour explosive gas, un-ignited, into the building.

It's a safety device focused on proper gas ignition.

If your burner has GOT proper ignition and is burning on continuously, AND if no hot water is being taken out of the tank, it'd make sense to look for a bad thermostatic control.

What's troubling of course is that I inferred from your question that previously the heater was not turning ON and you had no hot water.

As your serial number format doesn't exactly match the examples we've found for de-coding AOS water heater age,
a guess is
AD6A067772
Ser# FB00A123456 decodes to F=Factory code, B=month code using A - N for January - December (the letter I is not used) and the next two digits encode the year.
- example: Ser# GB92-03123456-789 decodes to Factory ID=G, Month=B or February, Year=92 or 1992.
so AD - D = April and 06 = 2006
Let's do a sanity check: how old is the house where this heater is installed? What are the country and city? Are there any service tags or is there a manual with the heater (and what's the publication date of the manual?)
Please attach a photo of the data tag

Can't say Rosemarie as we have not a shred of data, just six words of text.
But if your water heater is an AO Smith unit, take a look at the data tag on your heater, find the serial number, then compare it's format and characters with the AO Smith water heater decoding guides given above on this page.
You are also welcome to try the 'add image' button to post a photo of your heater's data tag.
Knowing the country, city, and age of the home are also useful.

Jack,
AO Smith water heater age decoders are given on the page above.
Your format SN # F06A147109 looks closest to this decoding example given above
Ser# FB00A123456 that's explained in the article, as
Ser# FB00A123456 decodes to F=Factory code, B=month code using A - N for January - December (the letter I is not used) and the next two digits encode the year.
- example: Ser# GB92-03123456-789 decodes to Factory ID=G, Month=B or February, Year=92 or 1992.
but it's not an exact match.
1. Is this an A.O. Smith water heater?
2. if so and if it doesn't match the known codes we can guess at 2006 or you could try asking them info@aosmith.nl
3. Let's have a 'sanity check' - what are the country and city of your water heater and what is the age of the building where it's installed?
The company's more-recent water heater data tags encode the year as
YYWW123456 where YY = year and WW = week number from 1-52
Please attach a sharp photo of the data tag found on your water heater by using the add image button

We own a AO smith has water heater. It flashes six times but no hot water. We unplugged it. It went through four cycles but then just shuts down. Any ideas?

EG
You can turn off the water heater when leaving for several days or longer, and will save a little money - standby losses from modern water heaters are not very great.
Conventional wisdom is that one can reduce the cost of electric hot water, if you use hot water at fairly regularly times, by having have an electrician install an automatic timer that turns the heater off for periods when it will not be in use -

see TIMERS for ELECTRIC WATER HEATERS inspectapedia.com/Energy/Hot_Water_Heater_Timers.php
Interestingly, Elk and Auberg found that timers don't save much energy, but that where hot water use occurs at regular times, turning the heater down (or maybe off) after the last daily use can save money. Here is an excerpt:
It is apparent that for no-flow standby loss reduction, the use of a clock-timer is marginal at best~ A more appropriate test sequence would be one which represents a typical household water use pattern, allowing the tank to be de-energized prior to the final hot water use during the day. Under idealized conditions, the upper limit of savings achievable with a clock-timer would be to reduce standby losses to zero for the duration of the u'off' time by completely using the last tankful of heated water.
A more realistic limit would be to use the last tankful down to about 100degF which would reduce the temperature differential to about 30 degrees over ambient the off period.

Ek, P.E. and Co Douglas Auburg, PeE., CEM, ELECTRIC WATER HEATER STANDBY LOSSES: COMPARISON OF CONSERVATION STRATEGIES AND THEIR ENERGY SAVINGS, Bonneville Power Administration (un-dated), retrieved 2018/12/25, original source: aceee.org/files/proceedings/1984/data/papers/SS84_Panel5_Paper_06.pdf
You can find a copy of this paper at InspectApedia.com at
inspectapedia.com/plumbing/Water-Heater-Standby-Loss-Elk.pdf
Other interesting facts about standby losses of water heaters:
Gas water heaters have higher standby losses than electric water heaters as additional heat from the water tank is lost through the exhaust flue (an automagic flue damper can reduce that loss)
Larger water heater tanks, because of their larger surface area, tend to have higher standby losses.
Tankless water heaters that do not maintain any reservoir of hot water have zero standby losses.
