Series 795 channel balance

Contractor from Mays Landing, NJ

Is there anyway to determine the needed length of the channel balance other than measuring it?  The sash is 29" high.  The Anderson window is original to a home built in 2000.  Getting to the window to tilt it in and measure it is difficult.

Thanks

Hey Scott. Unfortunately, no. With these balances, the only reliable way to get the length is to remove the balance and measure the metal channel. You are going to need to do this anyway to assess the right T-Lock Shoe for the balance. See the guide below that goes into detail about replacing the Series 795 correctly. Let us know if you have further questions.
