Does anyone know where I could locate/order/purchase replacement window springs? The windows are about 16 years old, double hung, wood, unknown manufacturer…
Thanks!

Listeners write in about haunted pipes and building-science tomes, and they ask questions about roof venting and roof leaks.

there was an article in Old House Journal about 2 issues ago.

Google on "Blaine Hardware"...they have a myriad number of window replacement parts. Good service and delivery, but.......Get out your wallet....the market on older replacement parts is WOW!

Ya dont need springs.
They sell a piece of flat metal thats sort of bent a bit
You slide it up along side the jambs by the sash and the pressure bend keeps the window taught and slides up and down without falling.
uhhh, less than ten bucks and works great.
Be taught without falling and I'm 53
