We DO have double pane windows. Just not in areas that have middling weather. Or construction before 1990 or so. Or in older mobile homes, which we have a lot of. And the houses with double pane windows are often poorly constructed, sometimes in the homes, sometimes in the windows, and often both.

The videos I’ve seen of northern European windows just seem to have a ton more features than ours.
I see. I think I’m starting to understand. It makes sense when you mention that energy has been very cheap.
Why spend money on new windows when the difference in the energy bill is just a few bucks.
