Hi there,
My home was built in 2000, and I have single hung windows throughout the house. The coil balance assemblies are in varying states of failure, and I'm hoping to be able to replace them. I came across your website and am hoping you can help. I am not sure who the manufacturer is for the windows, but I've included a photo of one of the labels as well as a few pics of the assemblies themselves. I'd appreciate any help available identifying the manufacturer (if needed) and identifying/sourcing the replacement coils.
Thank you,
Ben

Hello,
We can't be sure with the hardware still installed but your photos resemble the 15-111 pivot shoe, which uses either the 1/2" Series 160 or 3/8" Series 165 coil springs. You'll need to remove the coils to choose the strength option that corresponds with your stamps. The compatible covers can also be found under the related item section of the coil product pages if needed. Thanks for posting!

Hi Casey,
Thank you for the quick reply. I will pick a window to take the coils out and see how it is stamped. Will reply again when I do.
When I look on the pages you've linked above, I don't see the "related items" section. Trying to find the covers, but I haven't seen them so far. I would appreciate any help finding them. Most (maybe all - need to confirm) of the windows in my home have a dual coil.
So it sounds like I would then purchase the coils (4 per window), the pivot shoes (2 per window), and the covers (2 per window) to be able to replace my current broken ones. Making sure I have that correct.
Thank you for your help so far!
