How do I determine the length of the balance I need? Obviously I need to measure it but what is the best way to get an accurate measurement? Shall I remove it, leave it in place and measure it under tension or relaxed etc?
Many thanks for your help.

Thanks for your inquiry, Bern. The best way to get a precise length measurement on your spiral balance would be to have it removed from the window. You want to measure it from metal to metal. You may visit our selection of spiral balances to get a visual reference on what we exactly mean. If you should have any further questions about spiral balances, please be sure and let us know.
