Who's Water Heater is This

[Shane Pouch]

Hello to all,

Does anyone have an idea as to whose water heater this is?

Model = SRM 33713
Serial = SNN 1282304955

The foil nameplate was torn and missing, and there were no other markings.

Thanks in advance!

It's not mine! My WH is still in my garage! ;)

With that model number I would say that it is a States brand unit. I don't know for sure, but my home has a States and it has a similar number.

Possibly a 1995 model?

Any pictures??

Scott,

Good one! :p You better be glad it's not yours, as this place was a complete pit. Way up there on degree of difficulty!

No pics. I'm thinking more like 12th week of 1982 based on the visual condition.

Hey Shane,
I'm feelin' pretty good about your guess on the year, but the month might also be March. Anyway, sounds like POS, but here's a chart that may help future ID.
