Spring coil balance replacement

Quick Learner from Littleton, Colorado

I have 2 of the same windows needing coil balance replacement. They are Amerimax , installed 11/2005. I went through the warranty process with Cascade for the first window and this took a long time. My second window problem happened after the initial warranty request. They sent me 2 balances that have no name or part number shown. I would like to verify that they are the correct balance for my windows and find out the correct part number(s) so that I can order a set of balances for my second window.

Window width 34 inches. Height 16 3/8 inches. Weight 13.4 pounds. Photos added.

Thank you.

I would like to add that these windows do not have factory notches in the jam and I do not have jam spreaders. I will be cutting the jam to replace the balances and would appreciate any tips that you can provide for this process. Thanks again.

Hello,

Your pivot shoe resembles the 15-177, which uses the 1/2" wide S152 coil springs. For your sash weight, I would recommend using one S152-7 coil on each side.

We've also included a video below to walk you through the cutout method to access and replace your balances. Thanks for posting!
