in THE MAIN WALL
HI-the other day I was listening to a local radio talkshow and they had a HVAC contractor on the air, and he was talking about using an app on there ipad/phone that he said, they take a picture of the model/serial number on the equipment, and it would tell you know the age, sold date, and any warranty or recall issues and estimated life left in the furnace( for example) just by scanning the model/serial info on the unit.

Just wondering if any of you have this app ?

Thanks Dennis.

    HI Bob, I looked at that link you posted, that looks like something different that what the guy was talking about.

    There company just takes a picture of the model/serial numbers and it somehow detects the age, manufacture and sold date and any recall info plus estimated life left of the equipment.

    they did not mention the name of the app or software program they used.

    Thanks for the link though-Dennis
