What’s on the rating plate?
Peerless PureFire boilers only.
Scope matters
Supported formats
and historical limits.
- Manufacture date is distinct from installation, purchase and warranty start dates.
- The date code does not identify a full model, capacity or configuration. Enter the separate model from the rating plate for manual search.
- Confirm PB Heat/Peerless maker. Product branding confirms family; serial date digits do not recover PF/PFC/PFW model.
Research reviewed October 16, 2026. This independent tool applies published rules and retains unresolved years and model candidates.

boiler
Peerless manufacturer FAQ explicitly decodes 123456-201003 as March2010. Strip dashes/spaces only after retaining full serial for display; suffix is YYYYMM. Scope boilers; Peerless pumps/ranges/faucets are unrelated. Older MMYY and plain numeric families remain research-only until a primary-era chart is verified.
Reading your result
Purefire lookup questions
Why does the year code match more than one year?
Some systems reuse letters or only encode the last one or two year digits. Every supported interpretation is retained. A decade supplied from reliable records can narrow the reading; the tool does not automatically pick the newest year.
Does the serial identify my exact model?
Usually the model is a separate plate field. Where published serial ranges actually identify a model, the result shows model candidates and links to their manuals. Overlapping ranges remain ambiguous.
Can I share the result?
After a lookup, the address includes the serial in a fragment beginning with #serial=. Use “Copy share link” to share the serial and selected context. Opening the link runs the same lookup. The fragment is not a query-string result page.
