What object will take in more heat a single-pane window or a double-pane window?
The double pane window should be more efficient in keeping heat out. However, there is also more heat transfer from the frames if they are metal rather than vinyl. And the surface area of the double pane window is greater so it takes more time for the energy to be absorbed than the single pane window....I think:( My friend told me this information
