How to find your Lochinvar model and serial number
On almost every Lochinvar water heater, the model and serial number are printed on the rating plate, a metal or paper sticker on the side of the tank. Look near the top for the model number and just below it for the serial number. On tankless units, the plate is usually on the bottom or right-hand side of the cabinet.
Once you have the serial number, you can look up your Lochinvar water heater's age to pin down the exact manufacture date and compare it against the affected ranges above.
What to do if your Lochinvar water heater is affected
- Match your model and serial number to the affected ranges in the recall above. If they fall inside the range, your unit is likely covered.
- If the recall notice says the unit is unsafe to use, stop using it until you have the free remedy.
- Contact Lochinvar or the recall hotline listed in the recall. The remedy (repair kit, replacement part, or new unit) is free by law.
- Keep a record of your model and serial number and the recall ID handy for the call.
