Balancers for windows

Home Owner from New Jersey

Hi, attached is a photo of the balancer in my window. The windows are approximately 20 years old and as far as I know, have never been replaced. Not surprisingly, the windows are VERY difficult to open and close. I am trying to assess if replacing the balancers will improve the performance.

Here is a photo of the balancer. This particular window is 74-75 inches tall.

I'm looking for you to tell me which model I should order for replacement.

Thank you.

Hello,

Thanks for writing in! It appears you are searching for a replacement for your spiral balances. If the windows are difficult to open and close, it is likely time for the balances to be replaced. You may also benefit from replacing any of the other compatible hardware that may be installed in the window.

That said, to identify the correct replacement balances, there are a few details you'll need to gather. Unfortunately, I won't be able to identify exactly what you need based on the photo of the window and the inner spiral from the balance.

Take a look at the video tutorial below for reference.
