Florida Impact Window Balance

Question

So from your other post from Tampa Florida, do I also need the S380-30 or S385-30? The Channel length is 30", the stamp is 2950 BSI.

Thanks for writing in. This certainly looks like either our S380-30 or S385-30. The only difference between these two balances is the 'depth' of the bottom nylon shoe. For the Series 380, this 'heel-to-toe' measurement is 1"; for the Series 385 this measurement is 1-3/32". It's hard to judge from a photo of measuring tape. Measure just below where the metal channel ends. In any event, you will need a stamp option of 2950.
