Is it important to get dual pane windows?

Had both, wouldn't have another trailer without them. Primarily for the convenience stuff (no condensation, quieter, A/C runs a bit less, etc), not for any potential cost savings.....if one wants to save money, don't RV.

I understand your point but thermopane windows on a house are there to reduce energy cost and save money plain and simple.
The same dual pane logic does not apply to RV's. Certainly you can spend/waste plenty of money RV'ing without getting dual panes.
I agree get them to reduce exterior sound infiltration and condensation but don't get them to reduce energy cost.
AS far as as saving money, I have a whole rv full of things that are not absolutely necessary. I have no problem buying junk for my RV. My signature is full of unnecessary stuff. Fortunately dual panes are not in my signature because they do not fit my camping style or needs. Since RV dual panes do not provide any energy savings which I consider the primary function of dual pane windows I decided to pass.

I do not have a condensation issues with my single pane windows and I don't expect silence or solitude in my RV.
If I can hear my neighbor it's generally because I'm at a site where the RV's are packed too close together. If I get a decent well spaced sight outside noises are not an issue.
For those happy with their dual panes carry on, dual panes are an option that does not deliver enough bang for the buck to fit my camping style and needs.
