Question:

Can UV light pass through double glazed windows, also is it UV light that gives you a sun tan?


Answers:

UV light is usually screened out by ordinary glass, even single glazing. It is likely that modern glass used in double glazing has UV filters but to make sure you can check this with you supplier.

Yes it is the UV that your skin tries to protect itself from and subsequently produces melanin as a screen thus giving one a tan.
