Every habitable room shall have at least one window or skylight facing directly to the outdoors. The minimum total window glass area for every habitable room shall be ten percent of the floor area of such room. Whenever light is obstructed from a window by a structure that extends above the top of such window and is closer than three feet to such window, such a window shall not be deemed to face directly to the outdoors and shall not be included as contributing to the required minimum total window area. Whenever the only window in a room is a skylight-type window in the top of such room, the total window area of such skylight shall equal at least fifteen percent of the total floor area of such room.
