I am considering buying a van based motorhome fitted with the athermic glass windows - an Autosleeper model - but how do these windows compare to normal plastic double glazed windows ?

Are they as good for insulation hot / cold ? what about condensation being glass ?

I would value opinion from people who have experience of both types.

thanks

Last week we found ourselves in a very narrow lane with hedges scraping both sides of the van. (That’s another story!) The result is that there is not a single scratch to be seen on either the bodywork or the windows. I imagine plastic windows would have been a right mess after that.
