RV Window Help & Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions about measuring, seal selection

How Do I Measure RV Window Glass Thickness?

How Do I Choose the Correct RV Window Seal Size?

 

 How to Measure Window Glass Thickness ?


RV dual-pane window thickness varies.  

- Measure the total thickness of the dual-pane unit.  


- Common thicknesses are 7/16" (with 3/16" spacer seal) and 1/2" (with 1/4" spacer seal).  


- If you’re unsure, open a slider window and measure the overall glass thickness.  


- For accurate measurements, use a metal tape measure and record to the nearest 1/16".

 How to Choose the Correct Seal Size ?


The seal size must match your window frame channel. If it doesn’t, the kit will not fit properly.


Common seal sizes we offer:

- 3/16"

- 1/4"


If you are unsure of your seal size, email us your Year, Make, Model, and a few photos of your window — we’ll help you choose the correct size before you order.


Common Window Questions

 Common RV Window Questions


**What causes RV windows to fog up?**  

Fogging happens when the internal seal between the glass panes fails and lets moisture enter the air space.


**Will this kit fix etched glass?**  

No — etched or scratched glass must be replaced, not just resealed.


**Do I have to remove the window from the RV to measure?**  

Often No — measuring a Slider glass directly is the most accurate method.


**How long does DIY installation take?**  

Most first-time DIY installs take 1–2 days for one window (your first may take longer). Next one will be much faster.


**Will a kit prevent fogging in the future?**  

A correctly measured and installed kit will restore clarity and improve insulation, but long-term performance also depends on frame condition and installation care.
