SPIRAL TILT WINDOW BALANCE
The spring inside of my spiral tilt window balance broke. I measure the rod and it was 3/8in and rod was 28.5. Would that be 29 or 28in rod? Should I replace both of them.

Switching Yellow Tip with Red/Green Tip
I have the equivalent of the 29" long, 3/8" diameter Series 900 spiral balances for a window sash that weighs just under 19lbs. The current spiral balances are all yellow tip, which appears too strong. Am I OK switching to a red or green tip?

What's the right color of the tip I should buy from here if my original color is blue?
I only see three colors here : red, green and yellow. I did not see the option for blue. Can I buy the green one or red one? Can you also explain what the weight (10 to 22lb for red) means? Does it mean the window panel's weight? Thank you.
