Window Balancer Options

I have 4 windows that need balancer replacements, they are all 15" in height, unfortunately, they do not all have indicating stamps on them, so I am not sure which weight ratings to purchase.
The Windows are all Milgard, and appear to be pretty thick double paned glass. The first 2 are 16"w X 17"h and stamped with "14-2 DF5 CMC 54", the next is 34"w X 17"h and is not stamped, the last is 22"w X 17"h and stamped with 1520 BSI DC Can you give me a recommendation of which models to order?

Thanks for your time

Hello,

We can supply these replacement balances for you but it will need to be done through a custom order since we do not carry them as stock items. To clarify, it sounds like you would like to order a total of six balances, is that correct? 

We will also need to know the sash weight for the balances that are missing a stamp so that we can ensure they are calibrated to support your window sash. 

Lastly, please include a detailed photo of the 1520 stamp on the last balances you requested since it may be a different model than your other balances. 

Once we have the quantities, sash weight and additional photo, we'll be able to get a price quote together for you and send you an order link for your replacement balances. Thank you!
