  • Find Your Appliance Model Number Fast

  • Before scheduling a repair or ordering parts, you'll need your appliance's specific model number. Every appliance has a metal or sticker label called a rating plate or data plate that contains the exact model and serial number information.

  • Many homeowners make the mistake of looking at the large logo or numbers on the front of their appliance. However, these are simply brand names or product line designations, not the specific model identifier we need for accurate repairs.

  • ⚠️ IMPORTANT: Why the Correct Model Number Matters

    At Dars Appliance Repair, we've seen countless service delays caused by incorrect model numbers. Here's what to avoid. Don't rely on your purchase receipt, the shipping box, or your owner's manual. These documents often list product families or abbreviated codes rather than your specific model. Using incorrect information means we might arrive without the right parts, costing you time and potentially requiring a second visit.

  • 💡Pro Tip from Our Technicians: Take a clear photo of your model number plate with your smartphone. This way, you'll always have it handy when scheduling service or ordering replacement parts. Make sure the image captures all letters, numbers, and dashes clearly.

  • What Does a Model Number Plate Look Like?

    Most model plates are printed stickers or stamped labels affixed to the appliance. They typically include the manufacturer name, model number (labeled as MOD or Model Number), and serial number (labeled as SER or Serial Number), along with electrical specifications such as voltage, amperage, and frequency. The model number is usually a combination of letters and numbers, and may look something like: WTW5000DW1 or PDB1600AWE. Note that it is important to record the exact model number from the tag, as even one incorrect character can affect part compatibility or service results.
