which coil balance system should I purchase

Handy Person from Moncton, New Brunswick, Canada
Hello,My coil balance system is broken so my windows can't hold open anymore (The coil is broken on the right side and does not support the pivot shoe, a part of the coil is broken on the left side and the pivot shoe as well as the pivot bat is borken on the left side). I will need to replace both right and left side. In the picture that is attached, it looks like it is a double coil system made of 2 coil supports. However, I don't see any writings or numbers in any piece. The lenght of each coil support is 4.7cm (1.85inch) and the width is 3.2cm (1.25inch). The shoe width is the same. I weighted the sash on a scale and it weigths 11.2kg (24.69lbs). Can you please tell me which coil balances I need to purchase on the swisco website including the pivot bar (I have 3 inches pivot bars)?Thank you very much,Pierre

Your balance shoe appears to be the 15-191 Heavy Duty Pivot Shoe. I'm confident this should be a match but be sure to carefully review and compare the specifications.

It is most often used with the 26-241 Pivot Bar.

The compatible balance is the 1/2" wide Series 160 Coil Balance. Since the sash weight is 24.69lbs, I suggest using the S160-06 6lb coil. You'll need the 15-150D to replace the coil support.
