Empire pacific Windows balance option?
Ive identified the 380 series balance as a replace ment but when I ordered it specifies 'OPTIONS NEEDED" Then, your ordering system system doesnt itentify the parts, just part numbers... What gives? Thanks, Dave

S795-30 Option 30F
I have some channel balances that match S795-30, but the weight rating stamped on the channel is 30F BSI. The windows are laminated for noise suppression, so they are fairly heavy. Thanks, Sam

The windows are from about the 1940s and they have tube balance system that I was told might have been called "unique balance". I'm not sure where to look for markings, but I can't find any. They are the 5/8 size and tube lengths are about 22 inches 24 inches. We need one set. Thanks, Kathy ... (cont.)

Is the inside handle of the 40-152 reverseable?
Big question: the inside handle on your website diagram/photo of the 40-152 points to the right; we need ours to point to the LEFT. Does it come both ways and if so, how do we specify which way we need inside handle to point when ordering on website/ Thank you!
