earlier this year we had some windows changed because the seals had gone and we were getting condensation between the panes, We now have noticed that the new windows are condensating on the outside, is this normal ?

thanks,

Yes, it is common occurrence this time of year. When the heating goes on the outer pane is warm so the condensation does not happen. This time of year with warm days and cold nights it is likely to happen when the humidity is high.
