nope, mirror doesn't fog up. Not too much humidity in the house, then
what?
Seems like the answer lies in the glass behing too cold....some other
windows have better insulant between the two panes of glass.

Argon helps- a LITTLE bit - but thermopane basically is thermopane.
Non-conductive spacer bars help with "edge freezing", but if you are
getting wet window panes and ice, your humidity - WHATEVER it is, is
TOO HIGH.

If at 30% you are getting condensation with thermopane windows, first
thing I would do is check your RH meter.

If it is correct, your windows may, indeed, be FUBAR.

Exactly what kind of windows, in what type of home construction, and
where??????
