One of The Smartest Investments You Can Make In Your Home!

Clarke & Rush encourages our customers to take a long term approach to Smart Energy Savings while improving your homes comfort, value and monthly energy savings on your utility bills. One of the smartest investments you can make in your home is to have the proper insulation working which provides year-around comfort and savings on your monthly utility bill.

Insulation acts as a barrier to heat loss and heat gain, particularly in roofs and ceilings, walls and floors.

In many homes insulation is the most practical and cost-effective way to make a house more energy efficient, keeping it cooler in summer and warmer in winter and saving up to 80% in heating and cooling losses. In addition, insulation may reduce condensation in the home. This can provide health benefits by reducing mold and dampness throughout you home.

Attic and Wall Insulation keeps your home warmer in the winter, which lowers your heating costs. In summer, insulation eases the load on your air conditioner and saves you money. Proper insulation can also absorb sound, reducing unwanted noise while keeping you more comfortable and energy efficient!

Clarke & Rush has qualified thermal efficiency specialists that can assist Sacramento homeowners in achieving the best R-value for your home. Essentially R-value is a measure of thermal resistance, or the ability to prevent the transfer of heat. The larger the number, the harder that insulation is working at preventing heat conduction. The less heat loss, the lower your energy bills. Blown insulation is lightweight, has high R-value, is non-corrosive, and helps dissipate moisture, which together works for maximum energy efficiency for your home.

 

We take our responsibility very seriously when you place your trust in us. All work areas are cleaned, vacuumed, and put back to their original condition. We take extra measures to make sure that every detail is handled with your 100% satisfaction in mind.

Learn how to find the manufacture date on a Trane air conditioner using the serial number. This step-by-step guide explains where to locate the serial number, how to decode Trane serial number formats, and how to determine the age of your HVAC system for warranty, maintenance, and replacement planning.

Total Time: 10 minutes

Locate the Trane Data Plate

Find the manufacturer information label on your Trane air conditioner. The data plate is typically located on the outdoor condenser cabinet near the refrigerant lines or electrical access panel.

Find the Serial Number

Identify the serial number printed on the data plate. The serial number may contain both letters and numbers depending on the age of the unit.

Identify the Serial Number Format

Determine whether your Trane system uses a newer numeric serial number format or an older alphanumeric format. Most modern Trane systems use the first two digits for the year and the next two digits for the production week.

Decode the Manufacture Date

Read the first four digits of the serial number to determine the production year and manufacturing week. For example, serial number 15234ABC indicates the unit was manufactured during the 23rd week of 2015.

Verify the System Age

Compare the manufacture date with your installation paperwork, maintenance records, or warranty information to confirm the approximate age of the air conditioning system.

Evaluate Repair or Replacement Needs

Use the manufacture date to help determine whether your Trane air conditioner may benefit from continued maintenance, repair, or replacement based on its age and efficiency.
