How to calculate / choose the correct balance ( if you cannot read or find number on coil)
1. Weigh the window sash (The window sash is the part of the sliding window that moves up and down, it includes the frame and glass).
2. Divide the weight in half; this is the size for 1 side of the window.
3. Purchase 2 of the weights needed. Coil Balances should always be replaced in pairs.
Example: IF the window sash weights 24 pounds. You would need 2 12-pound coils, 1 on each side of the window.
