Which Side

Question

1) Which side of the window does this "coil balance shoe" shown in attached image work for, left, or right, or interchangeably?

2) My tilt window can not stay at an open position. Is this caused by the aged coil spring or coil balance?

Hi there, you've come to the right place! The 15-180 coil shoe can be used on either side of the window. It's typically used with Series 190 coil balances. And, if your window isn't staying up, it's usually safe to assume the coils are failing, or at least aged past function. Hope this helps a bit, but certainly, reach back out with any extra questions.
