If you're buying a used 5th wheel from a private seller & they say the windows are dual pane - how do you know for sure? Can you tell by looking at them?

I should think so. Our stix-n-bricks has dual pane windows and you can tell. Instead of looking out the window, look down at the bottom of the window frame where the window panes fit into it. You should be able to see that there are two panes of glass fitting in there. But you will have to LOOK and not take somebody's word for it to be sure. There is a dead air space between the two window panes, which is why you can see that there are two window panes fitting into the window frame.

I had a dealer show me how he makes sure they a Dual Pane, he lit a Bic Lighter and held it by the window and told me if you see two flames in the window it is a Dual Pane.

I tried both suggestions. I couldn't see the two panes (I could with house windows) but the flame thing works really well.

Open a window and check out the edge, should be two panes of glass with a seal between them.
