Balance Question

A home owner from Cape Coral says:
December 12, 2016
I just replaced the channel balances on one side of my duplex with your S395-30 : 30" Series 395 Channel Balance. Before I ordered I actually removed the window and weighed it, 25 pounds so I ordered the 2940 model. The window Lifts up very easy but going down takes a little more push. No big problem, I'll keep it but now I want to replace them on the other side of the duplex, same exact window. My question is, should I order the 2930 or the 2950 in order for it to go down with a little less push?

I would have gone with the 2940 option, too, based on your sash weight. You could consider the 2930, which is a little weaker, but I wouldn't go any lower. I also wouldn't go with the 2950, as that would make it even harder to close.
