A. 
Every habitable space shall have at least one window of approved size facing directly to the outdoors or to a court. The minimum total glazed area for every habitable space shall be 8% of the floor area of such room. Wherever walls or other portions of a structure face a window of any room and such obstructions are located less than three feet from the window and extend to a level above that of the ceiling of the room, such window shall not be deemed to face directly to the outdoors nor to a court and shall not be included as contributing to the required minimum total window area for the room. However, where natural light for rooms or spaces without exterior glazing areas is provided through an adjoining room, the unobstructed opening to the adjoining room shall be at least 8% of the floor area of the interior room or space, but not less than 25 square feet. The exterior glazing area shall be based on the total floor area being illuminated.
B. 
Every common hall and stairway in residential occupancies, other than in one- and two- family dwellings, shall be lighted at all times with at least a sixty-watt standard incandescent light bulb for each 200 square feet of floor area or equivalent illumination, provided that the spacing between lights shall not be greater than 30 feet. In other than residential occupancies, means of egress, including exterior means of egress, stairways shall be illuminated at all times the building space served by the means of egress is occupied with a minimum of one footcandle (11 lux) at floors, landings, and treads.
C. 
All other spaces shall be provided with natural or artificial light sufficient to permit the maintenance of sanitary conditions, the safe occupancy of the space, and utilization of the appliances, equipment, and fixtures.

The total openable area of such window in any and every room shall be equal to at least 45% of the minimum glazed area required in § 183-34A. However, where rooms and spaces without openings to the outdoors are ventilated through an adjoining room, the unobstructed opening to the adjoining room shall be at least 8% of the floor area of the interior room or space, but not less than 25 square feet. The ventilation openings to the outdoors shall be based on the total floor area being ventilated.
B. 
Every bathroom and toilet room shall comply with the ventilation requirements for habitable spaces as required by § 183-35A, except that a window shall not be required in such spaces equipped with a mechanical ventilation system. Air exhausted by a mechanical ventilation system from a bathroom or toilet room shall discharge to the outdoors and shall not be recirculated.
