A refrigerated display case door glass panel assembly includes a first pane of glass and a second pane of glass bounding a sealed space between the panes, and an electrically conductive coating applied to a surface of the first pane. The coating extending across at least a majority of a viewing area of the first pane. A first pair of electrical buses spaced apart from one another and electrically connected to the coating at respective first and second ends of the first pane, the first and second ends being opposite one another, and a second pair of electrical buses spaced apart from one another and electrically connected to the coating at respective third and fourth ends of the first pane. The third and fourth ends being opposite one another and adjacent to the first and second ends.
A refrigerated display case door glass panel assembly, comprising:
A refrigerated display case door, comprising:
A condensation control system configured to control power flow to a first pair of electrical buses and a second pair of electrical buses, each pair of electrical buses connected, at different locations, to an electrically conductive coating on a glass surface of a refrigerated display case door, the condensation control system configured to control the power flow to the first pair of electrical buses and the second pair of electrical buses such that more heating current flows to a heating zone proximate to a bottom of the refrigerated display case door than to a heating zone proximate a top of the refrigerated display case door.
