Mike Lamb Posted April 15, 2004 Report Share Posted April 15, 2004 Can I get any help on the age of a Peerless steam boiler, #G-1461. Owner claims he installed it 1994. Looks more like 25 + years. Thanks. Mike, Chgo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hausdok Posted April 15, 2004 Report Share Posted April 15, 2004 Hi Mike, Did you get the serial number of the unit? The date code is normally there. ONE TEAM - ONE FIGHT!!! Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Lamb Posted April 15, 2004 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2004 I only found one plate. I was unable to find the BTU's or any serial number. The boiler had a light green jacket which just said older than ten years to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neal Lewis Posted April 16, 2004 Report Share Posted April 16, 2004 Mike, Look for a serial/date code stamped on the gas valve or on the side of the pressuretrol, although both of these components could have been replaced. I have a light green Peerless steamer in my house from 1986.I believe the date would be somewhere on the label if it was 1994. Was there a Energyguide on the boiler; they first appeared about the early to mid 80's Sometimes, the old style cast iron LWCO can make a boiler look older than it is.
