A landlord heating override DESCRIBES the dwelling, so its assumed off-peak meter
(Dual/E7) is a coherent default — it must not downgrade a cert that already
lodges a more-off-peak meter (e.g. property 709874's 24-hour all-low tariff). The
overlay opts in via keep_existing_off_peak_meter; _fold_heating then keeps the
cert's meter when both it and the desired meter are off-peak. Heating MEASURES
build HeatingOverlay directly and leave the flag False, so they still re-meter
for real (Elmhurst re-lodges 18-hour -> Dual on a storage install) — the cascade
pins stay green.

System-built is RdSAP code 6, colliding with the gov-EPC code-6 basement
sentinel that main_wall_is_basement falls back to. The wall overlay now pins
wall_is_basement=False for system-built, mirroring the gov-API mapper's
_clear_basement_flag_when_system_built, so the override no longer adds a phantom
basement (which inflated both wall and ground-floor heat loss).

Electric room heaters (691) get a Dual meter from the overlay (not single-rate):
an all-electric room-heater dwelling realistically bills on Economy 7, and the
§12 dispatch then applies a high/low split rather than a single-rate over-penalty.
Overlay owns its assumed-meter policy via _ASSUMED_DUAL_METER_CODES (the §12
off-peak systems + room heaters), keeping OFF_PEAK_IMPLYING_HEATING_CODES pure.

'Electric room heaters' archetype -> SAP Table 4a code 691 (panel/convector/
radiant), on a single-rate meter (691 is not off-peak-implying, unlike storage).

A Landlord heating-system override was applied as a sparse patch, so the
replaced system's fields bled through. A storage flat reclassified as a gas
combi (property 728513) kept mains_gas=False, heating category 7, the 2401
storage charge control, a Dual meter and an electric-immersion cylinder — an
incoherent record that gated out the gas-boiler-upgrade Measure and made the
heating Generator read the dwelling as off-gas (offering HHRSH storage).
Extend the ADR-0035 drag-along to gas boilers (Table 4b 102/104/120): the
overlay now sets the whole coherent companion set — mains_gas, gas main fuel,
heating category 2, fanned flue, full modern controls (2106), a single-rate
meter, and hot water from the main system with the cylinder set from the boiler
type (combi → none, regular/CPSU → cylinder). The main_fuel overlay also flips
mains_gas=True for a "mains gas" fuel. Non-off-peak archetypes now drag an
explicit Single meter so a system switch never leaves a stale Dual.

A dwelling's heating is one conceptual system, but its fields are scattered
across EpcPropertyData (a gov-API schema mirror): the cluster on sap_heating, the
electricity tariff on sap_energy_source.meter_type, hot-water flags loose at top
level. Three places synthesise a heating system — Measure Options, Landlord
Overrides, EPC Prediction's donor — and each hand-copied a different ad-hoc
subset. The override and donor both dropped meter_type, so an electric-storage
system landed on the template's single-rate meter and billed overnight heat at
the peak rate: property 713406 scored SAP 13 (G) vs ~50 (E), inflating the HHRSH
measure to +45.8 and overshooting the plan to band A.
Establish a single Coherent Heating System boundary (CONTEXT.md) that every
synthesiser must cover, with a source-appropriate fill policy (ADR-0035):
- Override overlay *completes* the partial system the landlord named. Companion
fields are now DERIVED from the SAP code, not hand-attached per archetype: the
off-peak meter from the calculator's single off-peak classification (new
OFF_PEAK_IMPLYING_HEATING_CODES = SAP §12 Rules 1-2), and an unobserved storage
charge control defaults to the conservative manual control (Table 4e 2401). So
adding a heating archetype is just adding its code — companions can't be
forgotten. A contract test guards it (every off-peak code drags a Dual meter).
- Prediction's heating donor now *carries* the donor's meter_type alongside its
sap_heating cluster — the donor is already coherent.
Coherence is a synthesis-time obligation only; the calculator still scores a real
lodged cert exactly as lodged.
Verified on 713406: baseline 13 -> 47.8 (E), matching its recorded rating; the
phantom HHRSH recommendation is gone and the plan no longer overshoots to A.
