Hello,
I'm looking to replace a few window channel balances in a window that I have in my master bedroom. The windows were relatively new when we moved into our house in 2013 but I cannot determine the brand of window (there are no markings anywhere). For this window, I need 2 replacement channels for the top/back pane, and 1 replacement channel for the bottom/front pane. I was able to determine that I need two of the 22" Series 775 Balance (2201 & 1-1/4" shoe) for the top/back pane, but I'm not sure which series I need for the bottom/front. Judging from the existing channel, it looks like a 26" channel but without the aluminum channel (spring and rod only) plus a 1-1/4" shoe. Attached is a picture of the existing channel. Can you help determine which replacement part I need?
Thank you,
Jack

Hello, Jack. This is an old Rod type balance that isn't made anymore. The good news is that one of our modern balances very well may work as a replacement. I'm just not sure what. Please show me a picture of the clip, shoe, or whatever else is at the bottom end of the balance. That will allow us to determine which Series from our catalog will replace it. |

This is precisely what I needed to see, thank you! I believe our Series 775 channel balance will replace your original. This has the same type of "boat" shaped shoe at the bottom and should install the same way. Look it over and let me know what you think. |

As long as that information is accurate, then it sounds good to me! Please let me know if you had any other questions about this product. |
