Okay, not stressed, but concerned perhaps. There's some horror stories on here and also some regurgitation of urban myths. In my experience, the windscreen replacement company has been fine and I've no complaints. I'd argue that in any case, despite signing to accept the work, if the windscreen is found wanting then you still have come back from your insurers.

The best way to check is to use steam and then turn on the heated screen to make sure all of the elements are working.  Lee

Early in the morning take a container of freshly boiled water (like a tupperware container or something) out and sit it in the car, windows closed, on the dash.
It should steam it up in 30 seconds or so.
If you can run the car with the Air con on as cold as possible for 10 minutes before hand it might help.
