Yes, it absolutely does matter. You will want to make sure you replace your balances with the exact type (size and tip color) of spiral balance. If you're not certain which ones will work for your application, you can give us the diameter, length of metal portion and color tip. This way we can help you decide.
In the meantime you can follow our Sash Support Balance Guide. |

Yes, stick to the same diameters, lengths, and tip colors. Do not forget to order a charging tool like the 75-006 along with your balance order. You will need to rotate the spiral balance roughly about (3) times during the installation. Rotating the spiral balance adds tension. Here is a quick guide on charging tilt window spiral balances. Let us know if you have any further questions or need help choosing the proper replacement balances.
