I'm in the industry and have never heard of this. If it is true, please post it.

The difference in jamb depth does not matter. If you are truly concernered, have your contractor maintain the exterior reveal (distance from face of building to window) and make up the difference on the interior. My opninion is to maintain the interior as one cannot see the front and back of the building at the same time.

You might be referring to programs such as the ones offered by NYSERDA (which are for energy savings, not for restoration of original windows per se):

You might be referring to tax benefits from exterior restorations of buildings on the National Register.

Pls tell - who did the restoration? I'm having a lot of trouble finding somebody to restore (not replace) my windows...
