Replacement spring mechanisms for jamb liners
Hi - I wrote to you last week about obtaining jambliners for these windows but you could not find them. I have obtained a source for the jambliners, but now I need new spring weights to make them work. I am enclosing pictures of the spring weight mechanism. The windows were made by Windsor Window ...

?Marvin balances
I have what I am almost sure are Marvin windows with a 29 inch measured spring balance- 2 for the top window and two for the bottom. They are the same shape and length as the S751-29 product you sell. The stamping says 28XHD. What is your equivalent product? Are the tops and bottoms the same uni ... (cont.)

Ribbed balance height
Is there a way to estimate the proper balance height based on the sash? Customer needs interior shutters removed for access and they do not want to do that until the work is ready to be done. Visible glass is 29H, the sash height is 34.25. Thanks

Clips for 751 series channel balances
Hi, Didn't see anywhere where the 751 ribbed channel balances come with the clips for hooking onto the jamb liners? Do they or do I have to order separate? Thanks, Pat

Kolbe and Kolbe Window balance
Hello I'm looking for a pair of window balances for a double hung from Kolbe Kolbe. They are tilt in windows. The balances are beige in color and have 28-HD stamped on them. There looks to be a small black and silver piece which I think might be the brake?

What do I need for my balances
I need to replace 24 balances. The balances are labeled with a number. The size listed on the balance is different than the actual length of the part. For example a size 16 measures 17". I think it is a 16" part but I need to be sure. Please clarify. I have the weights for each sash but I do ... (cont.)

My series 751 won't work!
Regarding my recent order with SWISCO. I installed the 751 channel balances and I cannot get them to work. When I put the sash in the window and lower it to the shoe, the shoe remains in the locked position. Pushing the sash down farther only causes the shoe to be locked in a lower position in th ...

Rivco windows
Hi, I need to replace the channel balances on several Rivco windows. I've identified them as 751 because they are tilt out, ribbed and have a 15-014 balance knife lock shoe. They are all stamped with 28 but they measure 29 inches. The upper sashes weigh18 lbs. The lower sashes weigh 22 lbs ... (cont.)

Window channel balances
I'm replacing the channel balances in several double-hung windows. It seems odd that the channel balance for the upper sash is the same as the lower sash because the lower sash stretches the spring so much more. The part number stamped on each is W 28HD and is for a tilt window. If I replace all ... (cont.)

Tilt Balances/Removal and Installation
How do you remove and install a S751 balance? Marked on my balance it says UNIQUE 30 H D. I see the installation diagram for the other type of balances but this one is not the same is there a diagram for this type.
