Dual pane windows

How do you know for sure what kind of windows are on your unit? An adhesive label is rather easy to remove if that's the only indicator. Is it wirtten "into" the glass by any chance, the way there is writing "into" automobile glass, indicating it is "safety glass" etc?

I am sure someone else will jump in here to explain it to you but as I understand it dual pane would mean two panes with air space between them.

Or at least that is how the windows are in our stick built home.

Hold a candle or lighter up to the window... count the reflections in the glass. This is the number of panes you have! It doesn't always work with low E/Argon windows...

happy camping,

Another way is to open a window where you can put your finger on the outside and one on the inside facing each other, you will see the space bewteen your fingers.
