In 11/09 I had 5 larger windows including the drivers toll window which has to be cut and welded at a cost of $1000.00 out the door. They were great to work with.
They are located in Hudson Fl. and have elec hookups for about 12 motorhomes. I made my appt.a couple months ahead and got there a day early approx.1:00 A M and was finished the next afternoon. I did notice they had American. Allegro, National, Cou. Coach. and others getting the same. Address below Larry Wilkens

Hi all.....I too have foggy windows in my Inspire. It has been suggested to me that I should replace the old glass with 7/16" thick laminated (solid) glass. Has anyone done this? I don't have a cost yet but repair seems to be in the $250 to $300 price range per window. Thanks for any help.....Ray 2006 Inspire 51692

I have not replaced any windows in my Coach, but have some experience from a past life dealing with R/U values and heat loss etc.
I don't think that 7/16" laminated glass would be a good replacement for a dual pane (thermopane) unit mainly due to the condensation issue. Laminated glass has a thin layer of plastic between the 2 glass layers which is great for safety and security, but does not have the same thermal break (nor insulation value) that the layer of air provides in a dual pane unit.
You will most likely have issues with condensation, particularly in a cold climate.
You best unit would be a thermopane that has some low e coating on the glass.
