The API `floor_heat_loss` code is authoritative — confirmed by joining each
single-BP cert's code to its independent `floors[].description` (which the
gov register publishes alongside the code):
code 1 ↔ "To external air" (exposed, 9/9)
code 2 ↔ "To unheated space" (semi-exposed, 6/6)
code 3 ↔ "(other premises below)" (partially htd, 9/9)
code 6 ↔ "(another dwelling below)" (party, 176/176)
code 7 ↔ "Solid"/"Suspended …" (ground, all)
Code 3 was mis-mapped to "To unheated space" (semi-exposed) and, on
mid-/top-floor flats, had its floor area zeroed entirely by the
dwelling-level exposure heuristic. RdSAP 10 §3.12 (PDF p.25) classes a
flat's floor over non-domestic "other premises … heated, but at different
times" as "above a partially heated space" → the §5.14 (PDF p.47) constant
U=0.7 W/m²K — distinct from semi-exposed (Table 20) and party (no loss).
Fix: the mapper sets `is_above_partially_heated_space` on the floor=0
dimension for code 3 (string → "(other premises below)" for fidelity), and
the heat-transmission step lets that per-BP lodgement override the flat
suppression upward (mirroring the existing exposed / "another dwelling
below" overrides). The cascade already routes is_above_partial → U=0.7.
Re-pins golden cert 7536-3827: its Ext2 (bp3) lodges code 3, but the cert's
lossy `floors[]` summary dropped that description, so a prior agent guessed
"code 3 = ground" (U=1.12) and concluded the residual was an irreducible
"register-rounding" artifact. It was this bug: Ext2 floor U 1.12 → 0.70,
PE -6.1952 → -5.6414, CO2 -0.1639 → -0.1492 (both toward 0), SAP unchanged.
Eval: 909 computed, 45.1% → 45.3% within 0.5, mean|err| 1.702 → 1.659,
<1.0 59.5% → 60.2%. 13 code-3 certs improve (0380 +3.71 → -0.63, 0350
+7.82 → +0.83, 2610 +7.47 → -1.29); the few that overshoot were already
failing and carry independent fabric bugs (9763's walls = 8 W/K for 60 m²).

A mid-/top-floor flat whose lowest floor is lodged as an exposed floor
(API floor_heat_loss=1) had its floor area zeroed by the dwelling-level
exposure heuristic, which keys only on the flat label and defaults
has_exposed_floor=False (assuming the floor sits over another *heated*
dwelling). RdSAP 10 §3.12 (PDF p.25) is explicit:
"Otherwise the floor area of the flat ... is:
- an exposed floor if there is an open space below"
i.e. a flat cantilevered over a passageway IS a heat-loss floor on
Table 20. The per-BP `is_exposed_floor` lodgement is authoritative and
now overrides the dwelling-level suppression upward, mirroring the
existing "another dwelling below" party override (which suppresses
downward). The code-1↔"E To external air" enum is confirmed by the
paired API+Summary worksheet certs (0350, 3800).
Eval: 45.1% → 45.3% within 0.5 (909 computed); cert 3836 +6.79 → +0.77,
5717 +1.31 → -0.07 and 0997 +0.76 → +0.05 cross into <0.5. Two
already-failing under-rated certs (7636, 2241) shift further — both are
dominated by independent cost-side over-counts the exposed floor merely
unmasks (7636 walls = 8.98 W/K for 33.87 m² is the real defect).

The gov EPC API field wall_insulation_thermal_conductivity is OUTPUT
metadata in the openly-published EPC, not an input to the RdSAP10 tool
(Elmhurst) that produced it — its wall entry is Type + Insulation +
thickness only, with no conductivity field. So the RdSAP10 reduced-data
method always uses the SAP 10.2 §5.8 (p.41) default λ=0.04 W/m·K,
whatever code the register lodged.
`_resolve_wall_insulation_lambda_w_per_mk` previously mapped only code 1
(→0.04) and RAISED on others, blocking cert 2090-6909-8060-5201-6401
(code 3 on an internally-insulated 360mm solid-brick wall) with
calc_raise:ValueError. Now it returns the §5.8 default for any code.
Validated: 2090 computes to SAP 73.97 vs lodged 74 (err -0.03); λ of
0.04 / 0.03 / 0.025 all round to 74, and Elmhurst exposes no conductivity
input, so 0.04 is the spec-faithful RdSAP10 value. Eval computed

SAP 10.2 Table 3 (PDF p.160) names "Direct-acting electric boiler"
verbatim in the primary-loss zero list (alongside electric immersion,
combi, CPSU, integral-vessel heat pump). RdSAP 10 §12 (p.62) classifies
SAP code 191 as the direct-acting electric boiler. Its cylinder is
immersion-heated with no primary pipework, so no primary circuit loss
applies — but `_primary_loss_applies` had no 191 branch, so a 191 main
(main_heating_category 2, "Boiler and radiators, electric") fell through
to the cat-{1,2} boiler branch and accrued ~1177 kWh/yr of phantom
primary loss on the electric-flat segment.
Validated against the cert-2474 worksheet: §4 (59) primary loss = 0,
(64) HW output 1760 (cylinder) + (64a) shower 581. Cert 2474 HW kWh
3585 → 2408; SAP 64.66 → 70.35 (the residual to the lodged 78 is an
Unknown-meter data-fidelity artifact — the register recorded meter_type=3
"Unknown" but the lodged rating used an 18-hour off-peak meter, per RdSAP

When DHW is heated by the main heat pump (WHC 901/902/914 = "from main
system") and the main carries a PCDB Table 362 record,
`_hot_water_fuel_cost_gbp_per_kwh` billed the electric HW at 100% off-peak
low rate (its long-standing TODO). SAP 10.2 Table 12a Grid 1 WH column
(PDF p.191) puts HP-DHW on the ASHP/GSHP-from-database row: 0.70
high-rate fraction at 7-hour and 10-hour → 0.70×14.68 + 0.30×7.50 =
12.526 p/kWh (10-hour), not 7.50 p. The low-rate collapse over-credited
the cat-4 HP-DHW cluster.
Fix: pass the cert WHC into the helper and, for HP-DHW (WHC ∈ {901,902,
914} + PCDB-HP main), bill at the ASHP_APP_N WH blended rate. Electric
IMMERSION (WHC 903) is a different Table 12a row (off-peak immersion 0.17

A heat pump that resolves via its PCDB Table 362 index alone (API path,
data_source=1, no Table-4a SAP code) had sap_main_heating_code=None, so
`_table_12a_system_for_main` fell through the 211-227/521-524 code-range
gate to None → the "100% off-peak low-rate" fallback. On a Dual meter
(RdSAP §12 Rule 3 routes heat pumps to the 10-hour tariff) this billed
space heating at 7.50 p/kWh instead of the SAP 10.2 Table 12a Grid 1
(PDF p.191) ASHP/GSHP-from-database row: 0.80 high-rate fraction →
0.80×14.68 + 0.20×7.50 = 13.244 p/kWh. The collapse over-credited the
whole cat-4 heat-pump cluster.
Fix: route any main with a PCDB heat-pump record to ASHP_APP_N regardless
of SAP code (a Table 362 record IS an Appendix-N heat pump by
definition). ASHP_APP_N and GSHP_APP_N share the 0.80 SH fraction at
7h/10h, so ASHP_APP_N is the canonical Appendix-N row for the SH split.

Electric storage heaters (and CPSU) charge overnight and cannot run
economically on a single rate, so their presence is physical evidence the
dwelling is on an off-peak tariff. RdSAP 10 §12 (PDF p.62) applied Rules
1-4 only for a Dual meter; an "Unknown" (code 3) meter returned STANDARD
without consulting the heating type, so a cat-7 storage main billed its
overnight charge at the standard 13.19 p/kWh instead of the 7-hour low
rate (5.50 p/kWh) — ~2.4x too high → large under-rate.
Two coupled fixes:
- `rdsap_tariff_for_cert`: for an Unknown meter, infer the off-peak tariff
from a Rule-1 CPSU (→10-hour) or Rule-2 storage (→7-hour) main; keep
STANDARD otherwise. Direct-acting/room heaters/heat pumps (Rule 3) are
NOT off-peak evidence (run on demand, exist on single-rate meters) so
they stay STANDARD — billing them 100% at the low rate over-credits.
- `_fuel_cost` now resolves its tariff via the §12-aware `_rdsap_tariff`
(not the raw `tariff_from_meter_type`), so the off-peak branch fires for
these storage certs and the legacy scalar fields bill the low rate.
Mirrors `_is_off_peak_meter`'s existing Unknown+electric heuristic (which
already routes HW/secondary off-peak), closing the main-space-heating gap.

The main pitched/flat roof U-value was derived from the JOINED text of
every roofs[] entry. A room-in-roof carries its own §3.9/§3.10 shell
area + U-value cascade (Table 17 / Table 18 col 4), so a multi-roof cert
lodged "Pitched, insulated (assumed) | Roof room(s), no insulation
(assumed)" leaked the RR's "no insulation" marker into the main roof's
u_roof → U=2.30 applied to the WHOLE main roof, ~3x over-stating its heat
loss. This is the 4700-family regular-roof-U leak.
`_joined_main_roof_descriptions` drops "Roof room(s)" entries before the
main-roof u_roof, falling back to the unfiltered join only for pure-RR
dwellings (every entry an RR) to preserve their prior behaviour. The RR
shell U is unaffected (computed separately) — golden 6035 stays green.

A roof lodged "Unknown loft insulation" carries roof_insulation_thickness
"NI" (Not Indicated → parsed to 0) or "ND" (None): the thickness is
UNDETERMINED, not zero. RdSAP 10 §5.11.4 (p.44) is deterministic here —
"U-values in Table 18 are used when thickness of insulation cannot be
determined" — so the roof takes the Table 18 age-band default (column (1)
pitched / column (3) flat), NOT the uninsulated 2.30 the Table 16 row-0
lookup returns for a parsed-0 thickness. The "Unknown" text is RdSAP's
rendering of the undetermined-thickness observation, distinct from a
genuine "no insulation" lodgement (which keeps 2.30).
u_roof gains an "unknown"-description branch ahead of the parsed-0 → 2.30
path, gated on undetermined thickness (None or 0). Top-floor flats with
"Pitched/Flat, Unknown ... insulation" were the worst electric-flat
under-raters: roof U=2.30 gave HLP ~3.7 on dwellings rated SAP 69-70.

A floor lodged API floor_heat_loss=6 ("another dwelling below") sits over
another heated dwelling, so it is a party floor with no heat loss (RdSAP
10 §3). The mapper mapped code 6 → None and the heat-transmission step
drove floor exposure solely from the dwelling-level `has_exposed_floor`
flag — which is keyed only on the dwelling_type label and defaults a
"Ground-floor flat" to an exposed floor. So a ground-floor flat above a
basement dwelling kept its full ground-floor heat-loss area.
Map code 6 → "(another dwelling below)" (still != "Ground floor", so the
§5 (12) suspended-timber rule stays inert) and have the cascade suppress
that BP's floor when its floor_type carries the signal, mirroring the
roof's existing "another dwelling above" per-BP party override.
Cert 2115-4121-4711-9361-3686 (ground-floor flat, floor_heat_loss=6):

A 440 mm (>420 mm) solid brick AS-BUILT wall computed U = 1.70 (the
220 mm bucket default) instead of the RdSAP-correct 1.10. The §5.7

Table 6 footnote (b) on the "Solid brick as built" row (PDF p.40):
"Or from 5.7 if wall thickness is other than 200mm to 280mm" — the

The 2026 API sample raised UnmappedApiCode on `gable_wall_type` 2 (10 certs)
and 3 (4 certs) — the two RR gable variants beyond Party(0)/Exposed(1).
Sim case 21 (an Elmhurst replica of API cert 2818-3053-3203-2655-9204:
gable_wall_type_1=2, gable_wall_type_2=3) lodges them as "Sheltered" and
"Connected", confirming **2=Sheltered, 3=Connected**.
- Mapper: `_API_TYPE_1_GABLE_TYPE_TO_KIND` gains 2 → `gable_wall_sheltered`,
3 → `connected_wall` (U=0, area deducts — already handled).
- Calculator: new `gable_wall_sheltered` branch. The API path lodges no

Sheltered = 1/(1/U_wall + 0.5) — back-solved + validated against case 21
(U_wall 1.10 → 0.71) and case 20 (1.70 → 0.92). A lodged U (Summary path)
still rides through as an override.
API sample: 14 raises clear → `computed` 882 → 896, `raise:ValueError` 16 → 2.

a SEPARATE wall-U-vs-thickness bug (next slice, validated by case 21's 1.10).

Table 12d cascade on standard code 30 (0.15405) instead of the E7 HIGH
code 32 → (263) 0.1616. SAP 10.2 Table 12a Grid 1 direct-acting electric
is 100% high-rate; mirrors the cost side billing it at 15.29 p/kWh.
- Main storage heaters fell through `_table_12a_system_for_main`=None to
the FLAT annual factor (0.136) rather than the dual-rate LOW code: per
the Table 12a design intent ("storage … 100% low rate") they charge
off-peak → E7 LOW code 31 → (261) 0.1357.

RdSAP 10 §2 (Ventilation, "Walls" row): "Structural infiltration: 0.25
for steel or timber frame or 0.35 for masonry construction ... System
build: treated as masonry." `_is_timber_or_steel_frame` wrongly included
wall_construction code 6 (system build) alongside code 5 (timber frame),
handing system-build dwellings the 0.25 structural ACH instead of 0.35.
On the cat-10 room-heater fixture (ref 001431, walls SY System Build →
code 6) this under-stated the infiltration rate (18) by exactly 0.10
(0.45 vs worksheet 0.55), dropping the effective air change (25), the
ventilation heat loss (38)m = 0.33 × (25)m × (5), and the heat-transfer
coefficient (39) — so space-heating demand (98) came out 404 kWh low
((211) 11158.6 vs worksheet 11563.2). Restrict the 0.25 branch to code 5
only; code 6 (and everything else) is masonry at 0.35.
Pins the rating-block (38)m ventilation heat loss mean = 83.3613 W/K at
abs 1e-4 and asserts the classifier treats the system-build wall as
masonry. §4 suite green (2415 passed, 1 skipped); no existing fixture
relied on system-build → 0.25.
Residual after this slice: SAP +0.03 / cost -£0.95 — a small fabric (33)
gap (-0.15 W/K) plus lighting (232) +1.0 kWh remain as separate causes.

Water heating SAP code 909 (electric instantaneous) and 907 (single-point
gas) heat water at the point of use, serving one outlet with no
distribution pipework. Per SAP 10.2 §4 (p.23, l.1416): "'Single-point'
heaters, which are located at the point of use and serve only one outlet,
do not have distribution losses either." So worksheet (46)m = 0 and the
heat-required line collapses to SAP 10.2 worksheet l.7704
(62)m = 0.85 × (45)m + (46)m + (57)m + (59)m + (61)m
= 0.85 × (45)m (all loss terms zero for a no-cylinder system).
`distribution_loss_monthly_kwh` already supported the
`is_instantaneous_at_point_of_use` flag (and its docstring already named
codes 907/909), but `water_heating_from_cert` hard-coded it to False, so
the cascade applied (46)m = 0.15 × (45)m to single-point heaters. That
0.15 distribution loss exactly cancelled the 0.85 reduction, leaving
(62)m = (45)m. On the cat-10 room-heater fixture (ref 001431, code 909)
that over-stated the water fuel (219) as 2082.6250 instead of the
worksheet's 1770.2313, and inflated the (65)m heat gains (692.47 vs
worksheet 442.55) which in turn suppressed space-heating demand.
Thread the cert's existing instantaneous flag (`_INSTANTANEOUS_WATER_CODES`

The fuel codes the calculator now puts on SapResult are its own codes — raw
gov-API enums or already-Table-32, depending on the source mapper (ADR-0015).
sap_code_to_fuel now runs the code through table_32.to_table_32_code
(promoted from private _to_table_32_code) — T32-first, then API-translate,
the SAME normalization the calculator's pricing/CO2 helpers use — before the
Table-32 -> Fuel dispatch, so the bill's carrier matches what the calculator
billed (incl. the API/T32 collision codes, e.g. 20 = wood-logs not heat-net).
Falls back to the raw code for billing fuels the price table omits (the 41-58
heat-network range), which resolve to HEAT_NETWORK -> UnpricedFuel — stricter
than, and intentionally divergent from, the calculator's lossy
default-to-mains-gas for an unpriced code (ADR-0014 §5).

ADR-0014 BillDerivation attributes each end-use (HEATING / HOT_WATER /
SECONDARY / APPLIANCES / COOKING) to a fuel carrier and credits PV
export. SapResult already carried the per-end-use kWh but not WHICH
fuel each end-use burns, nor the annual exported kWh — so a downstream
SapResult->EnergyBreakdown adapter could not pick the right tariff.
Surfaces five output-only fields, threaded exactly like the recently
merged appliances/cooking change (2f039aeb):
main_heating_fuel_code RdSAP10 Table 32 / SAP 10.2 Table 12 fuel
main_2_heating_fuel_code code column (the lodged fuel code, e.g.
secondary_heating_fuel_code mains gas 26). None when the corresponding
hot_water_fuel_code system is absent / fuel not resolvable.
pv_exported_kwh_per_yr SAP 10.2 Appendix M1 §3-4 annual export kWh
(0.0 when no PV).
cert_to_inputs.py populates the four fuel codes from the existing
resolvers the cost/CO2 cascade already uses — `_main_fuel_code`,
`_secondary_fuel_code`, `_water_heating_fuel_code` (not reinvented);
Main 2 is the second `main_heating_details` entry, guarded for length.
There is a single CalculatorInputs construction site (cert_to_demand_
inputs delegates to cert_to_inputs). `pv_exported_kwh_per_yr` already
existed on CalculatorInputs; SapResult collapses its Optional to 0.0.
HARD CONSTRAINT honoured — output-only, zero rating drift. These fields
do NOT feed ECF / total_fuel_cost_gbp / co2_kg_per_yr / primary_energy_*
/ sap_score / any monthly value. Every golden-fixture, Elmhurst e2e

and a cert-level pin (mains-gas combi cert 000516 -> main fuel code 26,

PR feedback (dancafc): the simplified room-in-roof branch used cryptic

rr_common -> rr_common_wall_area
rr_gable -> rr_gable_area
a_rr_final -> rr_residual_roof_area (leftover roof-going area after

Names now mirror the `rr_*_area_m2` geom keys they read from and say

dwelling import price, Appendix G4 diverter), the resulting case-19 state
(SAP 50.33→51.34, rounds to lodged 51), and the two remaining case-19
causes (winter Appendix-M EPV monthly shape; fabric (33) +1.0). Adds the
`2100-5421` worst-offender diagnosis (a 352 m² uninsulated solid-wall

SAP 10.2 Appendix G4 (PDF p.72-73). A PV diverter routes surplus PV
generation (the would-be export EPV,m × (1 − βm)) to an immersion heater
in the hot-water cylinder. Per G4 step 4:
SPV,diverter,m = EPV,m × (1 − βm) × 0.8 × fPV,diverter,storageloss
(0.8 = cylinder heat-acceptance; fPV,diverter,storageloss = 0.9 for the
higher storage temperature), clamped to ≤ (62)m + (63a)m, and entered as
the negative worksheet (63b)m (step 5). The β factor is computed on the
PRE-diverter (219) per the §3a note (lines 5485-5486). Effects:
- (64)m = (62)m + (63b)m → less main-system water-heating fuel (219);
- export drops to EPV,ex,m = EPV,m(1 − βm) + (63b)m / 0.9 (§4 p.94
line 5501); the onsite dwelling portion EPV,m × βm is unchanged.
Inclusion (G4 step 1) requires ALL of: a PV system connected to the
dwelling; a cylinder larger than (43) average daily HW use; no solar
water heating; no battery — else the diverter is disregarded.
Three layers:
- extractor reads Summary §19 "Diverter present"; schema 21.0.0/21.0.1
SapEnergySource gains `pv_diverter` (API `sap_energy_source.pv_diverter`);
- `Renewables.pv_diverter_present` + domain `SapEnergySource.pv_diverter_present`,
set in both the Elmhurst and API mapper paths;
- `_pv_diverter_monthly_kwh` applies the G4 math after the β split;
`cert_to_inputs` recomputes (219) and the PV export.
On simulated case 19 (electric storage heaters, 7-hour, PV + diverter):
SAP continuous 50.33 → 51.34 (worksheet 51.2221; both round to the
lodged 51), cost (255) 1847.5 → 1812.3 (ws 1816.6), CO2 (272) 3331 →
3120 (ws 3126), with (233a) dwelling 1280.6 (ws 1280.4). The residual
+0.11 SAP is an upstream winter Appendix-M monthly-EPV-shape gap +
fabric (33) +1.0, tracked as the next case-19 cause. Suite: 2412 pass.

SAP 10.2 Appendix M1 §6 (PDF p.94, lines 5510-5513): "apply the normal
import electricity price to PV energy used within the dwelling and the
'electricity sold to grid, PV' price from Table 12 to the energy
exported. In the case of the former, use a weighted average of high and
low rates (Table 12a)."
`_pv_dwelling_import_price_gbp_per_kwh` was returning the bare off-peak
LOW rate (5.50 p/kWh on a 7-hour tariff) for the PV-used-in-dwelling
credit. PV self-consumption displaces the dwelling's "all other uses"
electricity (lighting / appliances / pumps), which on an off-peak tariff
bills at the Table 12a Grid 2 ALL_OTHER_USES weighted blend, not the low
rate. On simulated case 19 the worksheet (252)/(269) credits
PV-used-in-dwelling at 14.3110 p/kWh = 0.90 × 15.29 + 0.10 × 5.50; we
credited it at 5.50, under-crediting onsite PV by ~£0.088/kWh on every
off-peak PV cert.
Fix delegates to `_other_fuel_cost_gbp_per_kwh(tariff, prices)` (the same
ALL_OTHER_USES rate): STANDARD tariff still returns the flat Table 32
code 30 13.19 p/kWh (golden cohort unchanged — all 2412 tests pass);
off-peak returns the weighted high/low blend. Call sites now pass the
resolved `_rdsap_tariff(epc)`. The now-unused
`_off_peak_low_rate_gbp_per_kwh_via_meter_heuristic` (its only caller)
is removed.

SAP 10.2 Appendix M1 §3a (PDF p.93, lines 5470-5476): "E_space,m =
(211)m + (213)m + (215)m, where (211), (213) and/or (215) should be
included only where the fuel code applied to them in Section 10a of the
SAP worksheet is 30, 32, 34, 35 or 38 (i.e. electricity not at the
low-rate)."
The PV-eligible demand D_PV,m was adding 100% of the main space-heating
fuel (211)m whenever the main's Table-12 code was in the eligible set
(30, …), ignoring the off-peak high/low split that §10a already bills
via `_space_heating_fuel_cost_gbp_per_kwh`. Electric STORAGE heaters on
a 7-hour tariff are charged wholly at the low rate (Table 12a Grid 1 SH
fraction 0.00; worksheet (240) high-rate cost = 0), so none of (211)
may enter D_PV — but the cascade counted it all, inflating R_PV,m =
E_PV,m / D_PV,m and therefore the β onsite-PV split in the heating
months.
Fix mirrors the cost-side rate split: `_main_space_heating_high_rate_
fraction(main, tariff)` returns the high-rate portion (1.0 for
non-electric / STANDARD, the published Grid 1 SH fraction otherwise,
0.0 when the Grid 1 SH row is unwired → 100% low rate), and
`_pv_eligible_demand_monthly_kwh` scales the (211)m contribution by it.
Backward-compatible: STANDARD-tariff electric mains and the gas-main /
electric-secondary PV cohort are unchanged (fraction 1.0).
On simulated case 19 (electric storage heaters, 7-hour, PV) this takes
β_Jan 0.894 → 0.792, matching the worksheet 0.791, and the summer months
(no main heating) already pinned exactly.

RdSAP 10 §12 (PDF p.62) Dual-meter dispatch: "the choice between 7-hour
and 10-hour is made by the main heating type ... if the main system is a
direct-acting electric boiler (191), or electric room heaters ... it is
10-hour tariff." The electric room-heater codes — Table 4a 691 (panel/
convector/radiant), 692 (fan), 693 (portable), 694 (water-/oil-filled),
699 (assumed) — were missing from `_RULE_3_TEN_HOUR_CODES` (the long-
standing TODO there), so a Dual-meter room-heater cert fell through to
Rule 4 (7-hour default).
Compounded with S0380.230 (which routes room heaters to Table 12a
OTHER_DIRECT_ACTING_ELECTRIC): at 7-hour the high-rate fraction is 1.00
(all at 15.29 p), but at the correct 10-hour it is 0.50 split over the
10-hour rates (14.68 / 7.50 p) → blended ~11 p. Without this fix .230

SAP 10.2 Table 12a Grid 1 (PDF p.191): an electric room heater (RdSAP
main_heating_category 10, e.g. SAP code 691) is direct-acting electric,
so it sits on the "Other systems including direct-acting electric" row —
7-hour high-rate fraction 1.00, 10-hour 0.50. It runs on demand, mostly
at the HIGH rate; it does NOT earn the 100%-low-rate of overnight storage
charging (which is category 7).
`_table_12a_system_for_main` only mapped ASHP, so an electric room heater
fell through to the "100% low-rate" fallback (5.50 p, £0.0550), under-
charging space heating by ~9.79 p/kWh and systematically OVER-rating the
cluster. Now maps electric cat-10 mains to OTHER_DIRECT_ACTING_ELECTRIC
(gated on `_is_electric_main`, so gas/solid-fuel cat-10 room heaters are
excluded). The same Table 12a fraction flows through cost, CO2 (Table
12d) and PE (Table 12e) — all three callers already pre-gate on electric.

SAP 10.2 Table 3 (PDF p.160) row 1: primary circuit loss applies when
"hot water is heated by a heat generator (e.g. boiler) connected to a
hot water storage vessel via insulated or uninsulated pipes". The Table
4a hot-water-only codes (PDF p.166) 911 gas / 912 liquid / 913 solid
boiler-circulator + 921-931 range cooker with boiler are each a heat
generator feeding the cylinder through a primary loop.
`_primary_loss_applies` keyed only off the resolved DHW `main` — but for
these certs `_water_heating_main` returns the SPACE main (e.g. electric
storage heaters, SAP code 402, which has no primary loop), so every
boiler branch missed the gas water-boiler's primary circuit and (59)m
went to zero. New branch keys off `water_heating_code` ∈
`_WATER_HEATING_BOILER_CIRCULATOR_CODES`. 941 (electric HP for water
only) is excluded — HP DHW vessels follow the Table 3 integral-vessel
rules.
Simulated case 19 (electric storage main + WHS 911 + 210 L cylinder):
(62)m total HW demand 2493.30 → 3169.98 kWh/yr, matching the worksheet
(the missing 676.68 kWh/yr = the worksheet's (59) primary-loss annual
sum, h=5/p=0). The remaining (64)/(219) gap is the PV diverter (63b),

SAP 10.2 Table 12a Grid 1 (PDF p.191): secondary heating is a direct-
acting electric room heater (RdSAP 10 §A.2.2 default), on the "Other
systems including direct-acting electric" row — 7-hour high-rate fraction
1.00, 10-hour 0.50. A room heater runs on demand, mostly at the high
rate; it does NOT earn the 100%-low-rate of overnight storage charging.
`_secondary_fuel_cost_gbp_per_kwh` previously returned the flat off-peak
LOW rate (5.50 p, £0.0550) for every off-peak electric secondary, under-
charging by 9.79 p/kWh. New `_secondary_off_peak_rate_gbp_per_kwh` mirrors
`_space_heating_fuel_cost_gbp_per_kwh`: it blends the Table 12a high-rate
fraction (OTHER_DIRECT_ACTING_ELECTRIC) against the Table 32 high/low
rates, with the 18-/24-hour fallback to the low rate.
Simulated case 19 (electric storage main + electric secondary, Dual/7-hour
meter) is the worksheet case (242): "Space heating - secondary
(1.00*15.29 + 0.00*5.50)" → 15.29 p/kWh = £0.1529. This was the primary
cat-7-cluster cost driver: total cost 1485.68 → 1835.53 (worksheet
1816.58), SAP cont 60.11 → 50.67 (worksheet ~51.22). Remaining +19 cost
is HW/space-heating kWh (next slices).

SAP 10.2 Table 2b note b (PDF p.159) applies the ×0.9 temperature-factor
reduction only when DHW is "separately timed" relative to space heating
on a SHARED heat generator ("boiler systems, warm air systems and heat
pump systems"). Per RdSAP 10 §10.5.1 (PDF p.55) a separate boiler/
circulator providing DHW only (water-heating code 911 = "Gas boiler/
circulator for water heating only") is NOT the main space-heating system
— so there is no shared timer to apply the ×0.9 against. `_separately_
timed_dhw` now returns False when water_heating_code is not "from main /
2nd-main system" ({901,902,914}), mirroring the existing WHC 903 electric-
immersion carve-out.
Simulated case 19 (electric storage main SAP 402 + WHS 911 + 210 L
loose-jacket cylinder) is the worksheet case. The single flag drives both:
- (53) Temperature factor: 0.54 → 0.6000 (worksheet base, no ×0.9)
- (55) storage loss/day: → 3.4531; (56)/(57)m Jan → 107.0456 (1e-4)
- (59)m primary loss: h=3 (43.31) → h=5 (Jan 64.5792), worksheet-exact

The §10.7 no-water-heating default cylinder raised UnmappedSapCode for
age bands A-F (2 certs in a 2026 sample, bands B + C) because Table 29's
"A to F: 12 mm loose jacket" row wasn't plumbed — the loose-jacket
storage-loss branch didn't exist. S0380.224 added it, so this slice
completes the Table 29 lookup.
Restructure _TABLE_29_DEFAULT_CYLINDER_INSULATION_BY_AGE to carry
(cylinder_insulation_type, thickness_mm) per band — A-F → (loose jacket,
12), G/H → (factory, 25), I-M → (factory, 38) per RdSAP 10 Table 29
(PDF p.56) — and have the default read both, setting the loose-jacket
type for A-F instead of hardcoding factory. The strict-raise is retained
only for an absent / out-of-A-M age band (no Table 29 row).

`_cylinder_storage_loss_override` returned None for any cylinder whose
cylinder_insulation_type wasn't 1 (factory), so a loose-jacket cylinder
(code 2, RdSAP 10 field 7-11) fell to the cascade's zero-storage-loss
combi/instantaneous default — its real storage loss vanished. SAP 10.2
Table 2 Note 1 gives loose jacket a SEPARATE, ~2× higher loss factor
(L = 0.005 + 1.76/(t+12.8) vs factory 0.005 + 0.55/(t+4)); the
cylinder_storage_loss_factor_table_2 helper already implements it — only
the dispatch was missing.
Fix: a `_cylinder_storage_loss_insulation_label` resolver maps the lodged
code to the Table 2 branch (1 → factory_insulated, 2 → loose_jacket;
None/0/unknown → None, keeping the conservative no-loss default). The
override and the HW storage call now route through it instead of
hardcoding "factory_insulated".
Evidence + validation: a random 2026 register sample has 22 loose-jacket
certs that over-predicted SAP by +2.29 mean (18/22 too high, 1/22 within
0.5) — the exact signature of under-counted HW storage loss. After the
fix their mean error collapses to +0.45 and 11/22 land within 0.5, with
ZERO regression across the worksheet-validated cohort (§4 + golden suite
2394 passed — no validated cert lodges loose jacket, so none shifts).
Also unblocks the §10.7 A-F no-water-heating default (next slice) which

5 certs in a 2026 API sample raised `KeyError: 'rr_common_wall_area_m2'`
and were blocked from computing. Root cause: `_part_geometry`'s early
return (taken when a building part lodges no sap_floor_dimensions —
e.g. a party-wall-only or RR-only extension as bp[0]) returned only 6 of
the 9 keys the full return exposes, omitting rr_common_wall_area_m2,
rr_gable_area_m2 and cantilever_floor_area_m2. The §3.9 RR contribution
block reads geom["rr_common_wall_area_m2"] / ["rr_gable_area_m2"] for
EVERY part, so the floorless part's truncated dict raised KeyError at
heat_transmission.py:974.
Fix: the early return now exposes all 9 keys, the three RR/cantilever
geometry values defaulting to 0.0 — correct, since a part with no floor
dimensions has no derivable RR shell or cantilever (no floor area).
Pure contract-completion bug; no spec/U-value change.
Regression test pins the invariant directly: a floorless part's
_part_geometry keys must equal a with-floors part's keys. Validated: all
5 certs now compute (4 within ~2 SAP of lodged; the 5th, 8536, has a

Next-agent brief: fetch certs fresh from the EPC API (two new API+Summary+

flags are pre-this-session), so fresh-raw-JSON-vs-curated-fixture or a

Second silently-dropped field from the 2130 audit: the schema-21
SapBuildingPart never declared `wall_insulation_thermal_conductivity`, so
`from_dict` discarded it. Captured it through schema 21.0.0/21.0.1 → domain
SapBuildingPart → API mapper, and wired it into u_wall's RdSAP 10 §5.8
documentary-evidence R-value calc (both the solid-brick §5.7/§5.8 path and
the cavity-composite path), replacing the bare 0.04 λ constant with a
resolved λ.
Resolver: absent / "Unknown" → the §5.8 default 0.04 W/m·K (mineral wool /
EPS); a mapped code → its λ; an unmapped integer code RAISES so the enum is
confirmed against a worksheet rather than silently mis-factored (same
incremental-coverage discipline as the glazing-type map). Only code 1
(= the default 0.04) is mapped — the sole observed value (cert 2130 Ext1).
Zero cascade effect today: the λ path fires only for solid-brick/cavity
walls with a *measured* wall thickness, and 2130 Ext1 lodges no wall
thickness, so its conductivity is captured-but-unused; all existing §5.8
certs lodge no conductivity → 0.04 default unchanged. The point is to stop

A "Pitched, sloping ceiling" roof (roof_construction code 8) lodged with
"As Built" insulation (no measured thickness → None) was wrongly routed to
RdSAP 10 Table 18 column (1) "insulation between joists or unknown". A
sloping ceiling has no joist void, so per RdSAP 10 §5.11 roof-input item
5-5 ("Sloping ceiling insulation … unknown / as built → Table 18") and
Table 18 note (b) ("Applies also to roof with sloping ceiling") it takes
column (3) — band F = 0.68, band L = 0.18 (vs col 1 0.40 / 0.16).
Discriminator is the code-8 "sloping ceiling" string only: code-5 vaulted
ceilings stay on column (1) per the 33 cohort-2 "ND" vaulted certs
(S0380.211), and the "NI"/"ND" unknown case is untouched. New
`is_pitched_sloping_ceiling` flag threaded from heat_transmission to
`u_roof`; pre-1950 bands already reach the same col (3) value (2.30) via
the mapper's thickness=0 → Table 16 row-0 override, so the new branch
carries the post-1950 bands where col 1 ≠ col 3.
Worksheet-validated by simulated case 15 (the 7536 replica): our cascade
on its Summary matches the P960 worksheet exactly — roof HLC 29.17 W/K,
cont SAP 65.04 vs 65. Re-pins golden cert 7536: roof 26.77 → 29.17, cont
SAP 69.071 → 68.924, PE -7.0776 → -6.1952, CO2 -0.1875 → -0.1639 (SAP
integer 68, resid +1 unchanged — the remaining +0.92 is a diffuse demand
under-count needing a fully-faithful worksheet). Blast radius: 7536 only.
Suite: 2388 passed, 1 skipped (main); sap10_ml 233 passed + 2 pre-existing
stone-formula failures (out of scope). Zero new pyright errors.

Per each cert's notes: 7536 is a glazing-U gap (S0380.97 glazing_type=2
Table 24 default vs the cert's higher lodged U on multi-age bps) — the
tractable target; 2130's SAP +1 is a PV-β cohort cascade interaction, not
a fabric line. The earlier "multi-part wall, shared cause" label was wrong.

Add a CURRENT PRIORITY section: of 53 pinned golden certs, 3 have non-zero
SAP residual. 2130 (+0.85 cont) + 7536 (+0.57 cont) are real multi-part-wall
fabric over-predictions (the drive-to-zero targets, possibly one shared
cause). 0240 (-1) is architectural — the lodged 73 needs an unpreserved
2013+ pump; document the cause, do NOT re-pin (user decision).

Record the £120 standing-charge fix (Table 12 note (l) + §C3.2, case 14
(351)), the corrected diagnosis (standing charge, not cost scaling — the
4.24 p/kWh heat price was already right), the double-count avoidance, and
the remaining ~7% demand over-count (SAP -2). Bump HEAD/baseline/next-slice.

Cert 9390 (community mains-gas boiler, API main_fuel_type=20) drew £0
standing charge → fuel cost under-counted → SAP read +4 high (71 vs 67).
Root cause: the standing-charge logic (`additional_standing_charges_gbp`)
only knows the GAS branch (`_is_gas_code`) and the off-peak-electric branch.
A heat-network community fuel is not a Table-32 gas code — EPC 20 = "mains
gas (community)" normalises to Table-32 code 20 (biomass), so
`_is_gas_code(20)` is False and the standing came out £0. The Summary path
masks this because it lodges community gas as Table-32 code 1 (ordinary
mains gas), which IS gas-recognised and already draws the £120 gas standing
— so the CH1-6 corpus was unaffected while the API path lost the charge.
Spec basis (verified against SAP 10.2 spec PDF):
- Table 12 (p.191) "Heat networks" row standing charge = £120/yr, note (k).
- Note (l): "Include half this value if only DHW is provided by a heat
network."
- §C3.2 (p.58): the full charge applies when the space heating is also a
heat network.
Worksheet-validated: simulated case 14 (community boilers + mains gas,
space + water) → worksheet (351) Additional standing charges = £120.
Fix: new `_heat_network_standing_charge_gbp(epc, main)` returns the
heat-network standing (£120 full when the space main is a heat network;
£60 when only DHW is on the network) or None otherwise. Applied at both
fuel-cost call sites, REPLACING the fuel-based `additional_standing_charges
_gbp` for heat-network mains (NOT additive) so a Summary-path community-gas
main — already £120 via the gas branch — is not double-counted to £240. The
CH1-6 community corpus stays exactly £120 (59 corpus tests pass).
9390 SAP +4 → -2 (cont 65.39 vs lodged 67): the spec-correct £120 standing
EXPOSES a separate ~7% demand over-count (also visible as PE 220 vs lodged
205) — a heat-source-efficiency-default / fabric residual, follow-up scope.
9390 is unpinned (retired P2.2 per ADR-0010 §10); helper locked by 2 unit
tests. Full suite 2386 passed, 1 skipped.

Cert 9390-2722-3520 (community mains-gas boiler scheme, sap_main_heating_
code=301, main_fuel_type=20) emitted CO2 0.44 t vs lodged 2.8 t — 6.4x low.
Root cause: the EPC `main_fuel_type` enum and the SAP Table 12 / Table 32
fuel-code numbering COLLIDE in the 18-25 range. Per
`datatypes/epc/domain/epc_codes.csv` (RdSAP-Schema-17.0) EPC fuel
20 = "mains gas (community)", but Table 12/32 code 20 is a solid biomass
fuel (CO2 0.028, PE 1.046, wood-logs price). The factor lookups
(`co2_factor_kg_per_kwh` / `primary_energy_factor` / `unit_price_p_per_kwh`)
check the Table-12/32 dict FIRST, so the EPC community fuel 20 silently
returned the biomass factor instead of translating 20 -> Table 12 code 51
(community mains gas: CO2 0.210, PE 1.130, mains-gas price).
Fix: new `_heat_network_factor_fuel_code(main)` translates the EPC community
fuel to its Table-12 code via `API_FUEL_TO_TABLE_12`, but ONLY for
heat-network mains (`_is_heat_network_main`) — a genuine biomass boiler
(non-community) keeps its raw Table-12 factor. Applied at the five
heat-network factor sites: space-heating CO2 / PE / unit-price and
water-heating (WHC 901) CO2 / PE. The Summary path is unaffected (it maps
"Mains gas - community" to code 1, no collision), so the community-heating
corpus (CH1-6) is untouched.
Worksheet-validated against simulated case 14 (community boilers + mains
gas, SAP code 301): worksheet (367) CO2 factor 0.2100, (467) PE factor
1.1300 — exactly the Table-12 code-51 values the translator now reaches.
9390 CO2 0.44 -> 3.03 t (lodged 2.8; spec-correct factors over the API-only
register residual per [[feedback-worksheet-not-api-reference]]), PE 204 ->
220 (the spec-correct 1.13 factor; the prior 204≈205 match was the
collision coinciding with the register residual). 9390 is unpinned (retired
at P2.2 per ADR-0010 §10); the translator is locked by two unit tests.
REMAINING (separate follow-up): 9390 SAP +4 is a cost-side gap — the
heat-network cost path does not apply the 1/heat_source_eff (1/0.80)
scaling that the CO2/PE paths do, so community fuel cost under-counts.
Suite: 2616 passed, 1 skipped (community corpus green); the 2
test_rdsap_uvalues stone-formula failures are pre-existing (HEAD 58ff7d88).

Record the roof closure (vaulted NI → Table 18 col 1 0.16, cohort-arbitrated
not the guessed 0.25), the AGENT_GUIDE suite-command gap (sap10_ml/tests/ not
run) + pre-existing stone failures, cases 11/12/13 now available, and the
fuel-20 = community-gas (Table 12 code 51) note. Thread 2 still needs a
code-301 community-boiler + mains-gas worksheet (case 13 is code-302 CHP).

Closes the Ext1 vaulted-roof over-count that S0380.209 exposed on golden
cert 0240-0200-5706. BP2 lodges roof_construction=5 (vaulted ceiling),
roof_insulation_thickness="NI" (parsed to 0), description "Pitched,
insulated (assumed)", band J. The cascade returned U=0.68 — the RdSAP 10
§5.11.4 (p.44) retrofit-50 mm "insulation at joists" row. A vaulted /
sloping ceiling has no ceiling-joist void, so that row does not apply; per
RdSAP 10 §5.11 Table 18 (p.45) it takes the column (1) age-band default
(band J = 0.16).
The arbiter is the cohort, not the spec text alone: 33 cohort-2 certs
lodge "ND" (thickness None) vaulted roofs (roof_construction=5, band D)
that already pin to their dr87 worksheets at U=0.40 = Table 18 col (1) by
falling through the age-band default. 0240's only difference is the "NI"
sentinel (insulation present, unknown thickness) which uniquely hit the
0.68 override. (The S0380.209 note's predicted "cont ≈ 72.31" assumed a
col-3 0.25 value; the cohort's ND vaulted roofs disprove that — they use
col (1), so 0240 lands at cont 72.4617.)
Implementation: new `u_roof(is_sloping_ceiling=...)` flag, threaded from
heat_transmission for roof_construction_type containing "sloping ceiling"
(code 8) or "vaulted" (code 5). It fires only for the NI case
(thickness 0 + "insulated (assumed)"), routing to the col (1) age-band
default; the "ND"/None path is untouched (already col 1) and a NORMAL
pitched-with-loft roof still takes the §5.11.4 50 mm row (flag defaults
False). roof 76.93 → ~68 W/K → 0240 PE +5.5044 → +1.5181, CO2 +0.2757 →
+0.0728 (SAP integer 72 unchanged — the true value; lodged 73 needs the
unpreserved 2013+ pump).
Also corrects test_u_wall_cavity_as_built_partial_insulation_routes_to_
filled_cavity_row → ..._routes_to_as_built_row: a missed S0380.210
follow-up. That test (in domain/sap10_ml/tests/, which the AGENT_GUIDE §4
suite command does not run) asserted the pre-S0380.210 "partial insulation
→ filled" behavior on legacy-map parity, not worksheet evidence; S0380.210
corrected it to the as-built row per RdSAP 10 Table 6 + golden cert 0390's
four-metric closure.
Suite: 2614 passed, 1 skipped; the 2 remaining failures in
test_rdsap_uvalues.py (stone §5.6 thin-wall formula vs Table-6 1.7 cap)
are pre-existing (fail at HEAD 58ff7d88, before this branch's work).
