Window balance marking 28B USB

Landlord from Tampa Bay

Hi,

I have a non tilt window balance I am trying to replace, I have narrowed it down to a Series 380 or 385, top shoe should be a match to 19-005, lower shoe most likely is a 15-004 but it is not a visual match.  Rather than being a full 1 inch in depth, mine is 15/16, with a different profile.  Any insight is appreciated.  Length of channel only is 29 inches, window weight is less than 10 pounds.  

Thank you, 

Garth

Hi Garth, 

The balance you have here appears to have the 7/8" 15-029 shoe, installed on the Series 378 Channel Balance. Since your channel length is 29", you'll need the S378-29.

For your 28B stamp, we suggest using the 2820 stamp option, which can support a sash weighing 12 to 16lbs. Although, since you've estimated the sash to be less than 10lbs, the 2810 may be the one you need. It will support a 7 to 12lbs sash.

It would be a good idea to confirm the exact sash weight to be sure of the exact stamp you need.
