Default condensation on new double glazed windows...

We got new upvc double glazed windows fitted to the front of our house this
week.

My wife is convinced that all our condensations problems on windows would
disappear (we had pretty bad condensation on the old single pane sash
windows)

However this morning we noticed that the windows in our bedroom were a bit
(not enough to need wiped down) steamed up (say bottom 15-20% of each pane)

There was no condensation on any other of the new windows but there was a
bit on each pane in our bedroom (6 panes).

Is this just due to the moisture from our breath during the night?
Is it fair to expect zero condensation on the windows, should we contact
the DG company..

I did google a bit on this but most posts referred to moisture condensation
between the panes which is not what we are experiencing.

Even DG is not a perfect insulator. Its just BETTER.

Sounds like you have a very humid room - try a little ventilation in it.
