Window balance

Home Owner from Holmes Beach FL
We are missing the entire window balance mechanism (both sides) for a 48" tall window. Please advise.

Thanks
Bud

Note - this is different window than one just submitted

Hello,

We'd be happy to help but we would need to see a balance removed from an identical window in the house to determine what could work for this window. Thank you!

Here are the photos. Please let me know if you need anything else. The spring is 14" and the entire device is 23" metal only. Thanks

With this combination of attachments, you could have either an S380 or S385 channel balance. You’ll need to measure as shown below. The Series 380 has a 1" bottom attachment, and the Series 385 has a 1-3/32" attachment. You'll also need to measure the height of the visible glass of the sash in the window you're working on and add an inch to confirm the length you need. I would also recommend you weigh your sash to determine which strength option you'll need. There is a chart on the product page that explains how to choose your option based on the sash weight.  

Thank you and let us know if you have any other questions or concerns.
