An API audit flagged the solid-fuel room-heater space efficiencies
(_SPACE_EFF_BY_CODE 631-636) as reading the "Water" column of SAP 10.2
Table 4a. That was a misread: the two room-heater columns are (A)
minimum-for-HETAS-approved and (B) other appliances — BOTH are space
efficiency, not space/water. RdSAP defaults to column (B) when HETAS
approval is not lodged, which is what these values already hold and what
the reference software produces (Elmhurst worksheet "solid fuel 9", SAP
code 636 → (206) space efficiency = 70 = column B; flipping to column A
75 broke that pin and three sibling solid-fuel corpus pins).
No value change — add a pin test + spec-cited comment so the column-(A)/
(B) distinction is explicit and this misread can't recur.

Add the system tune-up to the heating Recommendation: keep the existing wet
boiler but install better heating controls and fix the cylinder. Two competing
Options (the Optimiser picks <=1 across the whole heating rec) per the user's
two best control end-states:
- system_tune_up — standard controls (programmer + room thermostat +
TRVs, SAP 10.2 Table 4e code 2106)
- system_tune_up_zoned — time-and-temperature zone control (code 2110, type 3):
more SAP uplift for more cost
Both keep the boiler (no fuel / SAP code / flue change), set the control
ABSOLUTELY to their end-state, and apply the conditional cylinder fixes (an
80 mm jacket when under-insulated, a thermostat when absent — only when a
cylinder exists). Each control option is offered only when it genuinely improves
the existing control — standard is skipped when the control is already 2106 /
2110 / 2112, zone when already 2110 / 2112 — so neither is ever a downgrade or a
no-op.
Validated against the Elmhurst "system tune up" re-lodgements (cert 001431):
nine befores spanning controls 2101-2113 all converge to the two common afters,
proving the control overlay is absolute. The cascade pin is parametrised over
two starting controls (2101 "no control" + 2113 "room thermostat and TRVs") x
both afters, delta 0 (SAP/CO2/PE).
Wires the two MeasureTypes through contingencies (0.15), the offline catalogue
(500 / 900), the catalogue-coverage list, the report triggers, and the ARA
first-run seed.

`_separately_timed_dhw` returned True for any boiler+cylinder+from-main
cert, applying the SAP 10.2 Table 2b note b) ×0.9 temperature-factor
reduction unconditionally. For the lpg-boiler "before" worksheet (pre-
1998 LPG boiler SAP code 115 + 210 L cylinder, NO cylinder thermostat,
control 2113 "Room thermostat and TRVs" — no programmer) this dropped
the (53) temperature factor to 0.702 (= 0.60 × 1.3 × 0.9) where the
worksheet lodges 0.78 (= 0.60 × 1.3), under-counting cylinder storage
loss (55) by ~119 kWh/yr and over-rating SAP by ~0.25.
RdSAP 10 §10.5 (PDF p.57) "Hot water separately timed":
No programmer, pre-1998 boiler → No
Programmer, pre-1998 boiler → Yes
Post-1998 boiler → Yes
DHW is therefore NOT separately timed only when a pre-1998 boiler is
paired with a no-programmer control. Add the two SAP 10.2 Table 4c(2) /
Table 4b lookups (controls without a programmer = {2101, 2103, 2111,
2113}; pre-1998 gas/LPG boilers 110-119 + oil 124/125/128) and return
False for that combination; every other boiler+cylinder cert keeps the
separately-timed default, so the change is confined to old low-control
stock and the heating corpus + goldens are unchanged.
Effect: the full chain (Summary PDF → extractor → mapper → cert_to_inputs
→ calculator) now reproduces the lpg-boiler worksheet's §11a unrounded
SAP -6.6499 at abs < 1e-4 (was -6.4013). Full regression suite green bar
the 3 pre-existing unrelated fails.

Pin the coal-boiler-with-cylinder upgrade and add the `boiler_flue_type`
end-state field. A solid-fuel (coal) boiler (fuel 11, SAP code 153) on a
mains-gas street converts to a gas condensing boiler (fuel 11->26, code 102) —
the non-gas->gas path for a solid-fuel system, eligible because code 153 is in
the wet-boiler solid-fuel range 151-161 and mains gas is present.
New `boiler_flue_type` HeatingOverlay field, routed to main_heating_details[0]
and set to 2 (room-sealed/balanced) on both boiler shapes: every relodged after
lodges flue type 2, but coal's before lodged none. The field is SAP-inert (the
cascade score is unchanged by it), so it is written purely for end-state
fidelity — the overlay now represents the installed condensing boiler's flue.
Validated via the overlay-equality unit tests.
The coal after predates the user-locked "always add a cylinder thermostat when
absent" rule, so it stale-lodged thermostat 'N'; the pin corrects it to the
rule's end-state 'Y' in-test (the gas with-cylinder after got the same
correction by re-lodging). The cylinder is already 80 mm insulated, so the
jacket is skipped and only the thermostat is added; controls (2106) are
unchanged. Cascade-pinned delta 0 (SAP/CO2/PE).

Extend the gas-boiler-upgrade Option to combi (no-cylinder) dwellings and add
the controls upgrade shared by both boiler shapes. A dwelling has a cylinder or
it does not, so the one `gas_boiler_upgrade` Option is shaped per dwelling:
- no cylinder -> a gas condensing combi (Table 4b code 104), no cylinder fields
touched;
- a cylinder -> a regular boiler (code 102) heating it, with the conditional
cylinder jacket/thermostat (slice 1).
Controls: bring an inadequate boiler control up to full programmer + room
thermostat + TRVs (SAP 10.2 Table 4e Group 1 code 2106). "Inadequate" = the
Group-1 codes with NO room thermostat (2101, 2102, 2107, 2108, 2109, 2111) —
these lack boiler interlock (Table 4c(2) / footnote c) p.171), so adding a room
thermostat genuinely improves SAP. Room-thermostatted (2103/2104/2105/2106/2113)
or better zone controls (2110/2112) are left unchanged — never downgraded, so
no phantom uplift. The with-cylinder cert (control 2106) is therefore untouched
and its pin still holds at delta 0.
Validated by the combi before/after re-lodgement (cert 001431, gas boiler
upgrade - no cylinder): control 2111 "TRVs and bypass" -> 2106, fan flue
False->True, SAP code 112 -> 104. Cascade-pinned delta 0 (SAP/CO2/PE). Removed
the slice-1 placeholder test asserting no boiler Option fires without a cylinder
(the combi Option now correctly fires there).

Add the first boiler-upgrade option to the single "Heating & Hot Water"
Recommendation (ADR-0024 expansion): a dwelling whose existing wet boiler heats
a hot-water cylinder is offered a new gas condensing boiler, with the cylinder
jacketed when under-insulated and given a thermostat when absent. One competing
Option (the Optimiser picks <=1), folded into one composite Plan line.
The end-state is read from the Elmhurst before/after re-lodgements (cert 001431,
gas boiler upgrade - with cylinder), which REVISE ADR-0024:
- Target is always a gas condensing boiler, not fuel-preserving: every after
lodges fuel 26. Gas->gas always; a non-gas wet boiler ->gas only with a
mains-gas connection; electric boilers are left alone (electrification is the
upgrade path). Eligibility = wet-boiler SAP code (Table 4a/4b 101-141 /
151-161 / 191-196) + not an electric boiler + mains gas present.
- End-state is a Table 4b SAP code, not a PCDB index: code 102 (regular boiler
+ cylinder). The calculator derives the condensing seasonal efficiency from
the code, so no efficiency input exists or is needed.
- A modern condensing boiler has a fanned flue: the after flips
`fan_flue_present` False->True on every cert (SAP 10.2 Table 4f flue-fan +
the Table 4b condensing-efficiency basis). Added as a new HeatingOverlay
field, routed to main_heating_details[0].
- Cylinder thermostat is always added when absent (user-locked); the jacket is
the 80 mm `cylinder_insulation_type=2` end-state, applied only when the
cylinder is below 80 mm (never downgrading a better one). Both are conditional
per-dwelling components, not a frozen overlay.
Cascade-pinned delta-0 (SAP/CO2/PE) against the relodged after via
`_assert_overlay_reproduces_after`. NB the absolute SAP on this dwelling is
subject to a separate Summary-path mapper roof-fidelity gap (we read the roof
better-insulated than Elmhurst, scoring ~75 vs the printed 56); the gap is
identical on before+after (the boiler measure never touches the roof) so it
cancels and the pin still proves the exact heating field-delta. Tracked on the
calculator branch.
Wires the new `gas_boiler_upgrade` MeasureType through contingencies (0.26),
the offline sample catalogue, the catalogue-coverage list, and the ARA
first-run integration seed (the option fires on any mains-gas boiler+cylinder
dwelling).

The heat-network HW distribution-loss override fired only when the MAIN was
a heat network AND whc inherited from main ({901,902,914}). Water-heating-only
heat networks (SAP 10.2 Table 4a HW codes 950 boilers / 951 CHP / 952 heat
pump) were missed entirely: their Table 4a plant efficiency applied with NO
distribution loss, so the HW fuel was under-counted by the Table 12c DLF
(1.33-1.48x) → under-cost → over-rate.
RdSAP 10 §10 (spec p.36): a water-heating-only heat network is calculated 'for
plant efficiency, distribution loss and pumping energy - see Table 12c'. Added
a whc-gated branch (independent of the main) applying water_eff = plant_eff /
DLF — the per-kWh-generated cost model (q_generated = q_useful x DLF). Fires on
the WHC alone so a HW-only heat network with a non-network main (cert 9093, whc
950 + warm-air main 502) is covered.
The 3 corpus whc=950 certs all improve in |err|: 2153 +2.62->-0.48 (now within
0.5), 7220 +1.27->-0.97, 9093 +6.04->+3.60 (residual is its warm-air main, a
separate cause). within-0.5 56.66->56.79%, within-1.0 71.9->72.2%, mean|err|
down; only those 3 certs change. New AAA test pins the DLF scaling fires on the
WHC independent of the main. Goldens + gate green, pyright net-zero.

Forcing-function guards so a lodged-but-unmapped code surfaces loudly instead
of silently taking a wrong-but-plausible default (the class that hid single
glazing as U=2.5 until this session). Four silent fallbacks converted to raise
on PRESENT-but-unmapped codes, while keeping the legitimate ABSENT (None)
defaults:
- _api_glazing_transmission: unmapped glazing_type -> UnmappedApiCode (was
None -> u_window all-None default 2.5).
- _api_cascade_glazing_type: unmapped glazing_type -> UnmappedApiCode (was
pass-through -> wrong g-value slot).
- seasonal_efficiency: a lodged code/category resolving in neither
_SPACE_EFF_BY_CODE nor the category/room-heater fallbacks -> UnmappedSapCode
(was blind 0.80 gas-boiler default, which 'catastrophically misrates heat
pumps and storage' per the table comment). Data-free calls keep 0.80.
- water_heating_efficiency: WHC in no SAP 10.2 Table 4a HW row ->
UnmappedSapCode (was blind 0.78). Absent code keeps 0.78.
Zero current-corpus impact (909 computed / 0 raises, 56.66% within-0.5
unchanged) — the code/efficiency tables are complete for today's data, so
these are guards for the ongoing audit + future data refreshes. Verified the
WHC table already covers 908 (multi-point gas) and 950 (HW heat network), so
those are NOT unmapped-code bugs. 8 AAA tests, goldens + gate green, pyright
net-zero.

Tier-1 finding of the silent-fallback audit. The fuel-type helpers fed the
SAP 10.2 Table 12/32 cost/CO2/PE lookups via a silent
`API_FUEL_TO_TABLE_12.get(fuel, fuel)` passthrough at 5 sites
(_heat_network_factor_fuel_code, HW CO2/PE, _secondary_fuel_code, PV). A fuel
code in NEITHER the API enum map NOR the Table-12 numbering passed straight
through to the mains-gas default baked into unit_price_p_per_kwh /
co2_factor_kg_per_kwh / primary_energy_factor (table_12.py:233/274/287,
table_32.py:190) — silently mis-pricing a novel/colliding fuel as grid gas.
This is the class that mis-priced cert 8536's community biomass as
electricity (-17 SAP) before a7761ea8.
New _table_12_factor_fuel_code mirrors .get(fuel, fuel) EXACTLY for every
recognised input (union of the CO2/PE/price/monthly table keys +
API_FUEL_TO_TABLE_12 values) and raises UnmappedSapCode only when the
resolved code is recognised by no table — surfacing the gap loudly per the
strict-raise principle (reference_unmapped_sap_code). Verified behaviour-
preserving: 0/909 corpus certs hit the new raise; eval unchanged at 54.9%
within-0.5 / 909 computed / 0 raises.

Completes the MEV fan-electricity thread. The PCDB-index slice closed the
9 MEV certs carrying a Table 322 record; the other 11 (mostly gas houses)
lodge mechanical_ventilation=2 with NO PCDB index, so
`_mev_decentralised_kwh_per_yr_from_cert` returned 0 and billed no fan
running cost — a tight +2.2 SAP over-rate (signed +1.23, median +2.19).
SAP 10.2 §2.6.3 / Table 4g note 1 (PDF p.176) prescribes a DEFAULT
specific fan power of 0.8 W/(l/s) for an MEV system whose fans are not in
the PCDB, used directly as SFPav in the §5 Table 4f (230a) formula
(SFPav × 1.22 × V). Restructure the helper: when no Table 322 record
resolves, fall back to the default for a mechanical-extract system
(`mechanical_ventilation_kind == EXTRACT_OR_PIV_OUTSIDE`); natural /
balanced (MVHR / MV) systems still contribute nothing.
Index-less extract cohort closed +1.23 -> +0.18 signed (each gains
~1.1 SAP of fan electricity). This is a spec-correct fix that improves
the aggregate but is a HEADLINE TRADE-OFF: within-2.0 83.6% -> 84.6%,
within-1.0 70.08% -> 70.19%, mean|err| 1.232 -> 1.224, but within-0.5
55.12% -> 54.90% (-2) — the fan energy is only ~half each cert's
over-rate, so the cohort lands at ~+1.0 (still outside 0.5) while two
borderline certs with offsetting errors cross out. Applied uniformly per
the determinism principle ([[feedback_software_no_special_handling]]):
the unmasked residual (~+1.0 on gas-house MEV) is the next lead.
1 AAA test (default SFP 0.8 × 1.22 × V for index-less MEV, 0 for
natural). Goldens + full calc/epc regression green (000565 MEV uses its
resolvable PCDB record, unaffected); pyright net-zero.

Audit of the API-SAP error (53% within 0.5) localised the systematic
under-rate to ELECTRIC FLATS (houses sit at 60-66% within 0.5; electric
flats 13-19%). Decomposing the flat error showed it tracks space-heating
demand per m² — the worst certs reach 130-289 kWh/m² (accurate certs sit
at 14-110), i.e. a grossly over-stated fabric heat loss, amplified ~4x by
the electricity unit price and the steep low-band SAP log curve.
Root cause: the gov-EPC API lodges `sheltered_wall="Y"` on alternative
wall sub-areas (a sub-area adjacent to an unheated buffer — stair core,
adjoining structure), but the field was dropped by the schema + domain
dataclasses and the calculator billed the alt sub-area at its full
exposed U. RdSAP 10 Table 4 (PDF p.22) "Sheltered": such a wall carries
an added external surface resistance R=0.5 m²K/W → U_sheltered =
1/(1/U + 0.5) — the SAME adjustment the main wall already applies for
`gable_wall_type=2` (`gable_wall_sheltered`,
`_SHELTERED_GABLE_ADDED_RESISTANCE_M2K_W`). Cert 0340-2976 (band-A flat,
42 m² sheltered timber-frame alt) over-stated its wall channel by
~58 W/K → walls 128 -> 70 W/K.
Threads the field end-to-end: schema dataclasses (21.0.0/21.0.1) +
domain `SapAlternativeWall.is_sheltered` (default False — the Summary/
Elmhurst path leaves it False, sheltering rides through its lodged
U-value there, so goldens are untouched) + `from_api_response` mapping
`"Y"->True` + `_alt_wall_w_per_k` applying the 0.5 resistance on the
cascade path (lodged-U and basement alt-walls return before it).
140 certs (15% of the corpus) carry a sheltered alt-wall; they under-
rated at median -0.82 / mean signed -1.33 / 23% within 0.5. Eval: 102
improved, 38 regressed (offsetting-error cases — fix is spec-uniform per
[[feedback_software_no_special_handling]]); within-0.5 53.14% -> 54.24%,
within-1.0 67.99% -> 69.64%, within-2.0 81.85% -> 83.50%, mean|err|
1.312 -> 1.248, 909 computed / 0 raises. Goldens (6035, 000565) and full
calc/epc/parser regression green; pyright net-zero.

The gov-API `main_fuel_type`/`water_heating_fuel` enum (epc_codes.csv)
codes 30="waste combustion (community)", 31="biomass (community)",
32="biogas (community)" collide in VALUE with the Table-32 electricity
codes 30 (standard rate), 31 (7-hour low) and 32 (7-hour high). All three
sit in `_ELECTRIC_FUEL_CODES`, so `is_electric_fuel_code` flagged a
community-scheme main as electric and `_is_electric_main` routed its cost
through the off-peak electricity branch — BYPASSING the heat-network rate
in `_heat_network_factor_fuel_code`. Cert 8536 (biomass community, SAP
code 301) was billing at 5.5 p/kWh grid electricity instead of the 4.24
p/kWh heat-network rate → -17.2 SAP.
Per RdSAP 10 §C / SAP 10.2 Table 12 (PDF p.191) the community
waste/biomass/biogas rows are codes 42/43/44 (the same rows the
backwards-compat enum codes 11/12/13 already map to). Add 30->42, 31->43,
32->44 to both API fuel-translation tables.
The remap CANNOT be global (`canonical_fuel_code`): the cascade uses the
bare Table-32 code 30 internally as `_STANDARD_ELECTRICITY_FUEL_CODE`
(the RdSAP no-water-heating immersion default writes
`water_heating_fuel=30`), so a blanket remap mis-prices genuine grid
electricity as community waste (cert 2211 regressed +16 SAP in a
prototype). Instead `_heat_network_community_fuel_code` translates only
when `_is_heat_network_main` is true, at the `_main_fuel_code` /
`_water_heating_fuel_code` fuel-TYPE boundary, where the community
meaning is unambiguous.
Per the strict-raise principle ([[reference-unmapped-sap-code]]), a
heat-network main lodging a colliding community fuel the table doesn't
cover raises `UnmappedSapCode` rather than silently falling through to
the same-numbered electricity code.
Eval (API SAP vs lodged): cert 8536 -17.25 -> -6.51, cert 5036 -6.29 ->
+1.36; mean|err| 1.329 -> 1.312, within-1.0 67.88% -> 67.99%,
within-2.0 81.74% -> 81.85%, within-0.5 held at 53.14%, 909 computed /
0 raises. No golden / calculator regressions.

Add domain/modelling/considered_measures.py::restrict_to_considered_measures —
the pure allowlist that limits a run to a chosen set of MeasureType (mirroring
the legacy engine's `inclusions`). It filters at the Option level, so a
multi-option Recommendation (e.g. Heating & Hot Water competing HHRSH against
an ASHP bundle) is kept with only its allowed Options; a Recommendation left
with none is dropped. None = consider everything (unrestricted default).
Thread `considered_measures: frozenset[MeasureType] | None` through
ModellingOrchestrator.run -> _plan_for -> _scored_candidate_groups /
_candidate_recommendations (applies the filter) and _measure_dependencies
(suppresses a forced dependency whose required measure is outside the
allowlist, so a restricted run forces nothing it is not considering). The
local-run seam (harness.console.run_modelling) gains the same param.
The Optimiser still freely chooses among survivors — including none. Tests:
the pure filter (3 cases) + an orchestrator-seam test proving a
{solar_pv}-restricted run yields only solar_pv options. 257 pass + 3 xfail;
pyright clean.

A coal main (gov-API main_fuel_type=33) was priced at the electricity
10-hour low rate (7.5 p) and anthracite (5) at the bulk-LPG rate
(12.19 p), because the shared price/CO2/PE lookups check Table-32/12-code
membership BEFORE translating the API enum — and codes 5/33 collide with
a different-fuel Table code. This drove the cohort's single worst cert
(2100 anthracite, -61 SAP). `is_electric_fuel_code(33)` also wrongly
classified the coal main as electric.
The gov-API fuel enum (confirmed by description-vs-code audit on
main_heating[].description): 5=anthracite, 33=coal, 9=dual-fuel,
20/25/31=community. The collision can't be resolved inside the shared
table functions — code 33 is ALSO the electricity-10h TARIFF code used by
the dual-rate CO2/PE split (golden 000565), so normalising there breaks
electricity certs. Instead `canonical_fuel_code` normalises the colliding
SOLID-fuel enums (5->15 anthracite, 33->11 house coal) at the fuel-TYPE
boundary in `_main_fuel_code` / `_water_heating_fuel_code`, where the code
is known to be a fuel type (never a tariff code).
Scoped to anthracite (5) + coal (33) — the unambiguous large mispricings.
Dual-fuel (9, 0.45 p delta) and community (20/25/31, heat-network path)
are deferred (noted in `_GOV_API_COLLISION_FUELS`).
API SAP eval: mean|err| 1.424 -> 1.329 (the -61 anthracite outlier 2100
-> -11, residual now fabric); within-0.5 53.1% (flat); 909 computed, 0
raises. Golden + Elmhurst regression green (the shared table functions
are unchanged, so the electricity-tariff CO2/PE path is untouched).

Tighten the recommendation/plan vocabulary off generic str:
MeasureOption.measure_type and PlanMeasure.measure_type are now MeasureType
(also _GlazingTarget.measure_type, MeasureDependency.triggers ->
frozenset[MeasureType], and the optimiser's chosen/required-type locals).
Because MeasureType is a StrEnum the change is transparent to persistence
(the `recommendation` varchar column), the optimiser group-by key, and every
`== "solar_pv"`-style comparison — so pyright now enforces the enum at every
construction site with no runtime behaviour change.
The catalogue boundary stays str: ProductRepository.get(measure_type: str)
and Product.measure_type are unchanged (they map arbitrary DB/JSON rows), so
the fake product repos in tests need no edit. Test construction helpers coerce
their str arg via MeasureType(...); direct constructions use members.
Suite green: tests/domain/modelling + orchestration + harness 253 pass + 3
xfail; pyright clean on production + tests (pre-existing moto + property-
override-rowcount baselines untouched).

Introduce domain/modelling/measure_type.py — a StrEnum with one member per
modelled measure (the 15 the generators emit). A StrEnum so each member *is*
its string value: it persists straight into the `recommendation` varchar
column, is the optimiser's group-by key, and compares equal to the catalogue /
EPC strings — so it replaces the per-generator string constants with no
persistence or optimiser change.
Repoint every generator's measure-type constant/literal to a MeasureType
member (wall, solid_wall, roof, floor, glazing, lighting, ventilation,
heating, solar). Field annotations stay `str` for now; tightening them to
MeasureType is the next slice.
This is the enum the historical engine deferred (engine.py:970
"TODO - formalise property measure types into an enum") and the vocabulary the
forthcoming `considered_measures` allowlist will speak (mirroring the legacy
`inclusions`).
Suite green: tests/domain/modelling + orchestration + harness 253 pass + 3
xfail; pyright clean on the enum + generators.

A flat roof lodged "Flat, no insulation" / "Flat, limited insulation" with
an undetermined insulation thickness ('ND'/'AB' → parsed None) was given the
Table 16 row-0/12mm U (2.30 / 1.50) from the description marker, regardless
of age band. Per RdSAP 10 §5.11.4 (PDF p.44) "U-values in Table 18 are used
when thickness of insulation cannot be determined" — the column (3)
flat-roof age-band default applies. The "no/limited insulation" text is
RdSAP's as-built rendering: at old bands (A-D) the column (3) default IS
2.30 (so those certs are unchanged), but a newer-band flat roof carries the
age-band insulation as built (band H = 0.35, F = 0.68, not 2.30).
Confirmed by the description-vs-rating audit: cert 0390-2753 (top-floor
flat, band H, "Flat, no insulation", thickness 'ND') lodges roof
energy_efficiency_rating = 3 (moderate U), NOT the rating-1 that 2.30
implies — and drove a -31.78 SAP error (roof 202 W/K over 88 m²). Same
masked-at-old-bands structure as the cavity-U fix: accurate at A-D where the
default coincides with 2.30, catastrophic only where it diverges.
Pitched roofs are deliberately NOT rerouted (their "no insulation" text is

An as-built cavity wall (wall_insulation_type=4) lodged "Cavity wall, as
built, insulated (assumed)" was routed to RdSAP 10 Table 6's "Filled
cavity" row. Per Table 6 (England, PDF p.41) the Filled-cavity row carries
the "†" footnote ("assumed as built") only at age bands I-M, where it is
numerically identical to "Cavity as built"; at bands A-H the Filled-cavity
row represents a GENUINE fill, not the as-built assumption. So an as-built
cavity must use the "Cavity as built" row at all bands (band G/H = 0.60,
not the filled 0.35).
This is the same latent A-H bug slice S0380.210 fixed for the "partial
insulation (assumed)" variant but left in place for "insulated (assumed)"
by a legacy production convention. The API SAP-accuracy cohort over-rated
"Cavity wall, as built, insulated (assumed)" certs at bands G/H by a clean
+1.38 / +1.61 SAP median (n=37 / n=18); bands I-M were unaffected (rows
coincide), confirming the spec mechanism per-band.
Retires the `_cavity_described_as_filled` description sniffer — as-built
cavities now always use the as-built row regardless of the rendered
insulation adjective; a genuine retrofit fill is still caught by the
explicit wall_insulation_type=2 branch.

Electric immersion water heating (WHC 903) on an off-peak tariff billed
100% at the low rate, under-costing the dwelling and over-rating it
(median +0.98 SAP across the off-peak WHC-903 API cohort, n=57).
SAP 10.2 Table 12a "Immersion water heater" row (PDF p.191) routes the
water-heating column to Table 13 (PDF p.197): the high-rate fraction is
a function of cylinder volume V, assumed occupancy N (Appendix J Table
1b) and single-/dual-immersion. The remainder bills at the low rate.
Table 13 Note 2 supplies exact equations equivalent to the rounded grid;
`electric_dhw_high_rate_fraction` evaluates them (validated against the
published 110 L grid cells). Per Note 1 the 10-hour equations cover any
tariff with >=10 hours/day low-rate (so 18-/24-hour use that column).
Immersion code mapping CONFIRMED 1=dual, 2=single via RdSAP 10 §10.5
(PDF p.54 — an immersion is "assumed dual" on a dual/off-peak meter)
cross-checked against the API cohort (code 1 sits 3.6:1 on dual meters;
code 2 on single meters). This INVERTS an earlier handover's unverified
"1=single, 2=dual" note — the dual code carries Table 13's small
fraction, matching the cohort over-rating direction; the single mapping
overshot in a prototype.
API SAP eval: 47.6% -> 48.6% within 0.5; <1.0 62.6% -> 63.8%;

`_secondary_fraction` keyed "has a secondary" off the integer
`secondary_heating_type` code. The gov-API path surfaces the secondary as a
DESCRIPTION instead (`secondary_heating.description`, e.g. "Portable electric
heaters (assumed)") and leaves the integer code None. So a gas/oil boiler
main (not in the §A.2.2 forced-secondary set) with an assumed portable-electric
secondary dropped the secondary entirely (sec_kWh=0), under-costing the
dwelling and over-rating its SAP.
Per RdSAP §A.2.2 / SAP 10.2 Table 11, a lodged secondary is costed at its
Table 11 fraction (cat-2 boiler = 0.10, billed at standard-rate electricity per
the §A.2.2 assumed portable-electric default). New
`_has_lodged_secondary_description` treats a real `secondary_heating.description`
as a lodged secondary; passed to `_secondary_fraction` at both call sites. The
description is authoritative — same lesson as floor_heat_loss / roof codes.
(Electric-storage mains were unaffected: they force the secondary already.)
Also adds the Table 11 fraction for main_heating_category=8 (electric underfloor,
"Integrated storage/direct-acting electric systems" = 0.10) — the strict-raise
surfaced this latent gap once cat-8 mains were routed through the lookup.

`_BOILER_NO_ROOM_THERMOSTAT_CONTROL_CODES` held only {2101, 2102} — it was
keyed off the Table 4e "+0.6 °C" annotation rather than the actual interlock
criterion. SAP 10.2 §9.4.11 (PDF p.66): "A boiler system with no room
thermostat (or a device equivalent in this context, such as a flow switch or
boiler energy manager) ... must be considered as having no interlock", and
"TRVs alone ... do not perform the boiler interlock function". A fixed bypass
likewise provides no interlock (it keeps water circulating when TRVs close).
So control 2107 ("Programmer, TRVs and bypass") and 2111 ("TRVs and bypass")
lack interlock and must take the Table 4c(2) −5pp Space+DHW seasonal-efficiency
adjustment and the Table 4f footnote a) ×1.3 circulation-pump uplift — both of
which they previously missed. (2108 flow switch / 2109 boiler energy manager
carry interlock-equivalent devices → excluded; 2103-2106/2113 have a room
thermostat.) All affected certs are cat-2 gas boilers, where §9.4.11 applies.

Pulls in 42 commits of calculator/mapper accuracy fixes from the per-cert
mapper-validation and floor/roof/heating fronts.
Conflict resolutions:
- mapper `_is_elmhurst_roof_window`: main dropped the branch's "wall location →
vertical" guard (it broke cert 000516's rooflight), but that re-broke cert
001431's two External-wall U>3.0 windows (which must stay vertical). The two
certs lodge a BYTE-IDENTICAL §11 row, so neither location nor U separates
them — the real discriminator is the room-in-roof context. Replaced the
unconditional U>3.0 backstop with one gated on the BP having a room-in-roof
(`_elmhurst_bp_has_room_in_roof`): 000516's Main BP has a "Room in roof type
1" (→ rooflight), 001431's does not (→ vertical). Validated against BOTH —
full Elmhurst worksheet suite 1038 pass + the 001431 window-extraction pin.
- property_postgres_repository: kept main's `ids_by_uprn` method + the branch's
`_restrictions_of` helper.
- sap_fuel.py: the branch relocated it to domain/billing/ (already carrying
main's to_table_32_code normalization), so kept the old path deleted.
Fallout from main's fabric fixes (validated by the boiler-3 real-cert pin which
still reproduces at delta 0):
- re-pinned the boiler-1 + boiler-instant-hw ASHP snapshot scores;
- main's §14.2 gas-boiler main-fuel derivation resolved the BGB/102 baseline
gap, so `test_gas_boiler_instant_hw_before_baselines` is now a passing test
(was an xfail tripwire).

Slice 6 of the Solar PV Recommendation Generator (ADR-0026). `recommend_solar`
emits one "Solar PV" Recommendation of up to five conservatively-sized configs
× {no battery, battery} = ≤10 competing Options (a free Optimiser candidate).
Each Option folds a SolarOverlay built from the chosen config: one
PhotovoltaicArray per non-north segment (peak_power = panels × panelCapacityW /
1000; orientation/pitch from geometry; generation-calibrated overshading),
is_dwelling_export_capable set True absolutely, a diverter when the dwelling
has a cylinder (None for a combi), a 5 kWh battery for the battery variant, and
the per-config composite cost from Products.solar_bundle_cost.
Eligibility = house/bungalow ∧ not listed/heritage (blocks_internal, the same
gate as ASHP — a conservation area does NOT block PV) ∧ no existing PV ∧ a
feasible SolarPotential. Flats and existing-PV top-up are deferred.

Slice 7 of the Solar PV Recommendation Generator (ADR-0026). Adds the
composite per-dwelling Solar PV cost on the Products collection (ADR-0025
pattern): pv_system(kWp band, nearest of the ECOPV06-13 EA bands 1.0→4.5 kWp,
floor/cap at the ends) + scaffolding(£900 first elevation + £450 each
additional, default 2) + enabling base (EICR £150 + DNO £50 + 2-way consumer
unit £330) + [diverter £980 if cylinder] + [battery if the with-battery
variant] → Cost(total, contingency_rate 0.15).
Rates are data in the committed solar_rates.json (Southern Housing "SOLAR PV &
BATTERY" EA column), loaded via SolarRates.from_json/.default and injectable.
The £2,000 / 5 kWh battery is NOT on the rate sheet — a flagged estimate
(battery_estimate=true), confirmed with the user to stand in until a DB rate.

Slice 5 of the Solar PV Recommendation Generator (ADR-0026). Adds the flat

the ventilation/lighting overlays it targets no building part and folds its

photovoltaic_arrays (absolute target, one PhotovoltaicArray per non-north
segment, replacing the dwelling's existing arrays), pv_diverter_present,
pv_connection, is_dwelling_export_capable (set True absolutely), pv_batteries.
Omitted fields leave the baseline unchanged (combi → no diverter); the

`select_conservative_configs` turns Google's full solarPanelConfigs ladder
into up to five competing array configs for the Optimiser: drop north-facing
planes (within 30° of due north, wrap-aware), cap usable panels at ~70% of
maxArrayPanelsCount (imagery misses obstructions; MCS edge setback), collapse
rungs that trim to the same usable size keeping the higher-generation layout,
then sample five spanning min→max by expected generation. Returns () when
nothing usable remains.
Real London example → 5 rungs at 4/12/19/26/34 panels (all ≤34.3 = 70% of
49); synthetic cases pin the north-drop and the 70% cap.

Slice 3 of the Solar PV Recommendation Generator (ADR-0026). Per roof segment,
back-solve the effective overshading factor ZPV from Google's expected
generation against SAP's own unshaded annual output:
ZPV = (yearlyEnergyDcKwh × 0.955) / (0.8 × kWp × S)
reusing the calculator's Appendix U3.3 annual solar radiation S via a new
public seam `pv_annual_solar_radiation_kwh_per_m2`. Dividing Google's
generation by SAP's S cancels orientation/tilt and isolates shading; the
result snaps to the RdSAP bucket {1:1.0, 2:0.8, 3:0.5, 4:0.35} via the
ADR-0026 midpoint cutpoints (≥0.90→1, 0.65–0.90→2, 0.425–0.65→3, <0.425→4;
ZPV>1→1). The real London example's planes all back-solve to ZPV>1 → code 1.

Slice 2 of the Solar PV Recommendation Generator (ADR-0026). Adds the
strictly-typed `SolarPotential` domain projection over the raw Google Solar
`buildingInsights` JSON that Ingestion persists (SolarRepository): the
`solarPanelConfigs` ladder, each rung broken into its roof segments with
Google's continuous azimuth/tilt mapped to the SAP octant
(`azimuth_to_sap_octant`, 0°=N clockwise → 1=N..8=NW, matching the
calculator's ORIENTATION_BY_SAP10_CODE) and RdSAP §11.1 pitch code
(`pitch_to_sap_code`, snap to {0→1,30→2,45→3,60→4,90→5}).
Pinned against the real London buildingInsights example (mirrored into

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).

electric room-heater secondary).
SAP 10.2 Table 11 (p.188): a gas/oil warm-air unit falls under "All gas,
liquid and solid fuel systems" (0.10), and electric warm air under
"Other electric systems" (also 0.10) — so 0.10 regardless of fuel. The
warm-air efficiency (Table 4a code→eff: 506→0.70) and Table 4f fan
energy were already wired; this was the only missing dispatch entry.

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

(default: the committed sheet), so rates are now data -- tunable (e.g.
reuse_distribution_fraction) without a code change, and ready for ETL/DB-supplied

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,

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.
