Hey John

Don't count on the serial number with Kenmore (Sears)
You have to contact Sears with the model number to get the actual year of manufacturing - been there done that - Phone numbers are in CD guide

Thanks Charlie - is that recent?

a slight correction--state owned kenmore but now A.O. SMITH bought state. ao smith makes the kenmore tank but its specs are different then the tank AO makes under its own name. kenmore tanks will have ao smith stamp on them--don't know when this all happened.
