Determining the Age of Your Whirlpool Appliance This advice applies to all appliances manufactured by Whirlpool. Determining the manufactured date of most appliances is accomplished by looking at the SERIAL NUMBER. Whirlpool Date Codes. The breakdown for Whirlpool Serial Numbers is: 1st Alpha Character = Manufacturing Division Code. 2nd Alpha Character = Year Manufactured (See Tables). 1st and 2nd Digit = Week of Year Manufactured. 3rd though 7th Digit = Order of Manufacturing that Week. For products 'not built by Whirlpool'. For the tanks that do not display an actual date, it’s also part of the actual serial number. The picture of the tank on the right is serial # GA-240, which means this tank was build in 1997. It’s usually the third and forth digit of the serial number. Because the serial codes repeat themselves, you will receive 3 possible dates for the Whirlpool-branded appliances, and 2 possible dates for the Heritage Maytag appliances. Disregard any dates set in the future, and then select the correct date based on when that model was made. Example Whirlpool serial number: FG1700000 Example Maytag serial.
