Carrier 58MVC080-F-10120 gas furnace Parts

On Carrier furnaces like model 58MVC080-F-10120, the serial number commonly encodes the manufacturing week and year in the first four digits. A typical example is 1618XXXX, where 16 is the 16th week of the year and 18 is the year 2018. Confirm the exact format for your unit in the owner's manual.

How to decode the first four digits (common Carrier format)

Use the first four digits as WWYY:

• WW = week of manufacture (01 to 52)
• YY = year (last two digits of the year)
• The remaining characters identify the production sequence and other internal details

Example

• Serial: 1618XXXX
  • 16 = 16th week
