Hi there!

Thank you for reaching out to us. We're happy to look into this. Can you show us a photo of the shoe that goes with this balance? It may still be in the window track. We'd also like you to confirm the stamp printed on the back of the metal channel. Additionally, how many balances are you looking to replace?

Thank you! Your balance is a match for the Series 795, but you'll notice that this installs with a screw. Yours uses a hook instead, which means this must be a custom order. We'll need to know the stamp printed on the metal channel, along with the number of balances you're looking to replace. 

The shoe appears to be the 15-195 or 15-194 shoe, depending on the width, but you'll have to remove the old one to determine the best match. You first need to tilt the shoe in towards you to about 90 degrees, then twist it so that the ears can slip past the track opening.

This matches the 15-194, which is sold separately. If you can confirm the stamp printed on the metal channel, we can get the ball rolling on the custom order.

Good morning,
It looks like D167-490 on the metal channel.

Hmm, that's a very strange stamp for this balance. Could you weigh the window sash on a scale and tell us the precise weight? That will allow us to confirm the proper stamp option for the replacement balances. 

Home Owner from Webster
The window sash weighs 29#.

Thank you! I'm going to email you a purchase link for (2) S795-30 balances with the 15-198 hooks attached, which you can use to place an order on our website. 30E will be the stamp option; a pair of balances will support a sash weighing 29 to 33 pounds. 

Please note that the 15-194 shoe can't be included in this link, so don't forget to add your needed quantity to your cart separately. The video below will show you how to attach the shoe to the balance. 

We'll be here if you have any questions!

I tried to increase the quantity at check out but since it was a quote, it will not allow me to increase the quantity.

I'd be happy to adjust the quantity on my end. How many balances were you looking to order? 

Home Owner from Webster
I quoted the incorrect weight of the window.  The weight is 19# not 29#.
Please requote.
Thank you.

We have two stamp options for you to select from: 30B and 30C. A pair of balances with the 30B stamp will support a sash weighing 13 to 19 pounds, and a pair of balances with the 30C stamp will support a sash weighing 19 to 24 pounds. 

If you can let us know which one you'd like to go with, we can send over a new purchase link for (4) balances. 

Home Owner from Webster
Yes, please provide the 30C stamp for the 4 balances. 
Thank you!
