Counter balance for window replacement

Thanks for posting, Melanie. You have what is known as a Spiral Balance. I would be more than happy to help you identify the correct replacement, I just need a bit more information about the balance itself.

First, is your window tilt, or non-tilt? Also, what is the length and diameter of the metal tube?

Thank you. I just need to know if these windows are tilt or non-tilt, and I can work from there!

Thank you! That should be all the information I need. It sounds like you may have a Series 600 spiral balance. Please take a look at our S600-24 with a red tip. Does that look like it will work for you?

Remember that the red tip for this balance can carry a sash weight range of 7 through, and including, 29 pounds. You may want to double check that just in case.

Please keep in mind that the weight range information is based on 2 balances per sash. Balances are designed assuming friction in the jamb weather-strip will carry a portion of the sash weight. Suggested sash weights are approximate.

All of our parts can be found on our main site. You can click on the links provided for the S600-24, add the quantity you desire to your cart, and then check out!

As for the 16" balance, please see our S600-16. Now, the red tip option for this shorter balance can support a window sash weight range of 6 through, and including, 18 pounds. Does that match the smaller sash weight? If not, let me know what it is, and I can recommend an appropriate tip color!
