Attached are photos of an example of window balancers I’m replacing in a condo near the coast.
Some of the windows won’t close anymore due to the channel springs beginning to rust from the salt air. I need to know what model numbers to order. I have the various channel lengths. I just need to know what part.
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Need to know what balancers to order?

Hello, thank you for posting,
We can supply your replacement balances but it will need to be a custom order due to the length, extended travel pulley system and unique combination of end attachments.
To further review, we will need to know the length of the metal channel needed excluding the nylon attachments and the number stamped on the metal channel. The length should end in a 5/8" increment.
Please mark sure that all lengths use the same top and bottom attachments as well as the metal clip. Extended travel balances come in multiple variations.
From there I can send over pricing for your review. Please note that there is a minimum order of (2) balances per length required. Thank you!

Hello Lauren, thank you so much for the reply. Sorry it took so long for me to get back to you. I'm not very tech savy and I was trying to do everything on my phone and cound not figure out how to see your reply. When I checked my emails on my computer I finally found your email. Here are the lengths I need. All the windows are single sash no tilt made by Milgard. One Bathroom window @19 5/8 inches, Five Bedroom windows @29 5/8 inches, and Two Dining room windows @31 5/8 inches.
Thank You

Thank you for the lengths!
To confirm the correct spring strength for the window, we will also need to know the number stamped on the metal channels per length. Again, I would recommend checking each window to confirm the channel stamps as these balances will be nonrefundable. Thank you!
