I own a 15 year old house. I do not have any information on the window manufacturer. There are not any numbers on the window nor the balance itself. It is a coil balance yet I will gladly do a spiral balance if necessary The window is a double-hung with muntin bars inside of the double pained glass.
The lower window itself; window only; size is 31.5" length by 33" wide. The total window measurements are 63.5 high and 34" in width. I can weigh the bottom window if needed. It is double paneled glass and most likely weighs in the 20lb range.
I have attached a picture of the broken balance. I was given your company name by a friend and I sincerely appreciate any help you can give me!

Hi Terry, I would be happy to help. Based on your photos, it looks like you have our 15-175 pivot shoe and our Series 152 spring. If you could just confirm the weight of your sash and let me know what that is, just to be on the safe side, that would be great! |

I just want to confirm before making a recommendation, is your bottom sash 20 or 40 pounds? |

Thank you. For a twenty pound sash, we recommend using two S152-5 springs on each side of the sash. Each of these carries 5 pounds, so having two on each side should be perfect for a 20 pound sash. Since you're using two springs on each side this time instead of one, you will also need a couple extra retainers. I recommend our 15-144 bushing cap and 15-145 barrel. You'll want both a cap and barrel for each spring. |
