All six are `from_site_notes`-only (gov-API RdSAP corpus unmoved at 78.9%),
graded against the DB PasHub-assessment oracle (energy_rating_current,
source='lodged'), not the surveyor-entered pre_sap.
A. Manual-Entry boiler efficiency. Extractor read PCDF-Search columns that a
manual survey lacks; mapper returned None for all boilers → the generic
0.80 gas default. Now read `Type of boiler:` / `Heating System (Boiler):`
/ `Is there an open flue?` and resolve the descriptor to its SAP 10.2
Table 4b code. Moves all 7 Wythenshawe manual boilers to the oracle
(4a Hollyhedge back boiler 63.6→53.4=53; group MAE 2.42→0.42).
B. Room-in-roof gable type None → strict-raise. A form variant omits the
gable-type line (genuine field-absence); default None → party `gable_wall`
(U=0.25), mirroring `_api_type_1_gable_kind(None)`. Present-but-unknown
labels still strict-raise. Unblocks 8 & 34 Bucklow Drive.
C. Secondary `Closed room heater` unmapped → add Table 4a code 633.
Unblocks 8 Brinkshaw Avenue.
D. Alternative-wall insulation thickness never extracted → parse
`Wall insulation thickness:` and pass it through instead of the RdSAP 10
§5.4 100 mm favourable default.
E. `Number of heated rooms?` label mismatch → the PDF lodges
`Please enter the number of HEATED rooms:`.
F. HW cylinder thermostat dropped (NEW, systematic). `_map_sap_heating`
never set `cylinder_thermostat`, so a surveyed thermostat defaulted None
and the calculator applied the SAP 10.2 Table 2b Note a) ×1.3 penalty.
Map it ("Y"/"N", gated on a lodged cylinder) as the Elmhurst path does.
Fixes the two worst DB-oracle under-raters (52 Bucklow 59.4→61.8=62;
13 Kerne Grove 65.0→67.1=67).
DB-oracle cohort (148 matched): within-0.5 83.8%→87.8%, MAE 0.427→0.303.

* Electric-immersion DHW: bill at 100%, not the space boiler's efficiency 🟩
A separate electric immersion heater (SAP water-heating code 903) is 100%
efficient (SAP 10.2 Table 4a) and the space-heating boiler provides no water
heating, so Appendix D2.1 Eq D1 (the boiler seasonal-efficiency cascade) must
not apply to it. But `_water_heating_main` resolves DHW to the SPACE main — a
gas/oil boiler keeps its PCDB record — so three water-efficiency branches in
cert_to_inputs billed the immersion-heated cylinder at the boiler's ~87% summer
efficiency (a mongrel: electric fuel price x gas-boiler efficiency):
1. the scalar `water_eff = water_pcdb_main.summer_efficiency_pct / 100`,
2. the SAP §9.4.11 / Table 4c(2) -5pp no-interlock adjustment, and
3. the Eq D1 (winter, summer) seasonal pair from `pcdb_main`.
Gate all three on `not dhw_is_electric_immersion`; the correct immersion path
(`_water_efficiency_with_category_inherit` -> 1.0, Eq D1 off) then applies,
mirroring the Table 3 zero-primary-loss gate already present for WHC 903.
General bug — fires for any WHC-903 dwelling whose space main is a PCDB gas/oil
boiler. It surfaced via the PasHub campaign's #1600 no-water-heating default
(WHC 999 -> 903) on a gas-combi dwelling: 58 Hackle St M11 4WU, SAP 55.30 ->
57.67 (pre_sap 58, verified 59).
Guardrails: the gov-API RdSAP corpus IMPROVES 78.8% -> 78.9% within-0.5, MAE
0.625 -> 0.622 (a handful of corpus certs with a boiler space main + electric
immersion move closer to accredited) — MAE ceiling ratcheted 0.626 -> 0.625.
Regression pinned in test_cert_to_inputs (RED before / GREEN after). pyright
0-new (cert_to_inputs baseline 30).

* PasHub SAP accuracy: thread low-energy lights + draught lobby (from_site_notes) 🟩
Two systematic silent-drops in the PAS Hub `from_site_notes` path, each a field
the gov-API/Elmhurst mappers thread but site-notes dropped, letting a favourable
default reach the SAP-10.2 calculator. Validated against the correct pashub
oracle (property_baseline_performance.effective_sap_score, portfolio 838):
cohort within-0.5 55.1% → 62.6%, MAE 0.599 → 0.521.
- Low-energy lights: when "exact LED/CFL known = No", PAS Hub lodges an aggregate
"Number of fixed low energy lights?" count. Previously dropped (no dataclass
field / extractor key / mapper thread) → calculator saw 0 low-energy bulbs and
applied the pessimistic L5b/L8c no-data default, under-rating SAP. Now threaded
into low_energy_fixed_lighting_bulbs_count, mirroring from_elmhurst_site_notes.
~6% of the cohort; resolves 58 Hackle (−0.43 vs oracle 59 with #1615).
- Draught lobby: _map_sap_ventilation set only the legacy `draught_lobby` field,
never the canonical `has_draught_lobby` §2 (13) gate the cascade reads, so the
surveyed lobby was ignored and infiltration over-stated. Now mirrors Elmhurst.
Two other audited levers were REJECTED against the pashub oracle (they matched
the gov-cert/RdSAP convention but pashub does not apply them): percent_draughtproofed
(cohort 30.8%) and the §A.2.2 assumed secondary heater (19.2%). A heat-network
control-code fix (2306→2303 for 16 Bingley) is HELD pending spec/Elmhurst
adjudication — it contradicts ADR-0053; see the NOTE on _PASHUB_HEAT_NETWORK_CONTROL_TO_SAP10.

* PasHub heat-network control: room-thermostat-only maps to 2308, not 2306 🟩
The Table 4e Group 3 label "charging linked to use of community heating, room
thermostat only" was mapped to 2306 — the linked-to-use *with-TRVs* code
(control type 3, space charging 1.00). The label explicitly excludes TRVs, so
it is control type 2 / space 1.05 = code 2308/2309 (linked-to-use → DHW 1.00).
2306 asserted TRVs the survey doesn't have and over-rated the cohort's sole
heat-network dwelling (16 Bingley Close 56.89 → 54.01 vs pashub oracle 52).
Verified against SAP 10.2 Table 4e as encoded in cert_to_inputs.py
(_CONTROL_TYPE_BY_CODE 2308→2, space-charging 2308→1.05, DHW 2308→1.00) and the
RdSAP control-label vocabulary in MainheatControlAttributes.py. 2303 (the earlier
audit's guess) is rejected: it is a flat-rate code (DHW 1.05) whose oracle match
was a coincidence of two offsetting spec violations. The residual +2.0 to oracle
52 is the documented SAP-10.2-engine-vs-lodged offset, not a fuel/flags gap
(those were threaded by the #1590 follow-up) — supersedes the ADR-0053 /
HANDOVER_838 "community fuel/flags" attribution.
16 Bingley is the only heat-network fixture in portfolio 838, so this moves one
fixture strictly toward its oracle. Harness ratcheted: within-0.5 0.51→0.58,
MAE 0.625→0.521 (observed 58.5% / 0.520 with all three 2026-07-15 levers).

* PasHub SAP accuracy: restore 3 dropped §2 infiltration inputs (from_site_notes)
`from_site_notes` uniquely dropped three ventilation inputs that the gov-API
and Elmhurst sibling mappers all set, causing a systematic cohort-wide SAP
under-rate vs the company's own accredited SAP-10.2 certs
(property_baseline_performance.effective_sap_score, portfolio 838):
1. percent_draughtproofed — never set, so §2(15) window infiltration was
pinned at its 0.25-ACH worst case on every dwelling. Reconstructed as the
area-weighted % of draught-proofed windows (mirrors Elmhurst
`draught_proofing_percent`). Dominant term.
2. Upper-storey +0.25 m joist void — omitted; now added, matching
`_UPPER_FLOOR_HEIGHT_ADD_M` on the gov-API/Elmhurst paths. This
RE-ADJUDICATES #1601 ("keep raw"): that call was confounded by the
then-present draught-proofing drop suppressing every verified dwelling.
3. sheltered_sides — left None → calculator's flat default of 2, which
over-shelters end/semi/detached (RdSAP §S5 = 1/1/0). Now derived from
built form.
The three are NON-ADDITIVE — each overshoots alone (which is why all three
were previously rejected individually) — but together they land all 7
verified ground-truth dwellings toward truth (none regress) and every built
form near zero. Cohort 62.1% -> 83.3% within-0.5, MAE 0.507 -> 0.377.
Guardrails: gov-API RdSAP corpus unchanged (78.9%, these are from_site_notes-
only helpers). pashub harness 58.5% -> 79.5% / MAE 0.520 -> 0.389; ratchets
tightened 0.58->0.78 and 0.521->0.40. pyright zero-new (mapper baseline 39).
New focused tests in TestFromSiteNotesInfiltrationFixes cover all three
fields incl. area-weighting and the built-form shelter map; goldens updated.

Resolve#1601 and land #1602/#1603 on the merged-#1609 tree, adjudicated
against Khalim's verified ground truth (not pre_sap).
#1601 (upper-floor +0.25 m joist void) — RESOLVED as keep-raw. The
gov-API/Elmhurst mappers add 0.25 m to upper-storey heights because their
lodged height is a clear internal ceiling. Against verified truth RAW beats
+0.25 on all 7 verified dwellings (16 Stillwater raw -0.35 within-band vs
+0.25 -0.75; every verified property is already under truth and +0.25 only
lowers SAP). pashub surveys internal dimensions (202/205 "Measurements
Location: Internal") and its upper-ground height gap is modal 0.00, so the
joist void is not differentially present and a blanket +0.25 is unsafe.
_map_floor_dimensions keeps the raw surveyed height with a RESOLVED note.
#1602 — semi-exposed / exposed floor exposure. The surveyed "Floor type"
"Semi Exposed (unheated)" now sets is_above_partially_heated_space (RdSAP
§5.14 U=0.7) and "Exposed Floor" sets is_exposed_floor (§5.13 Table 20), on
the lowest storey (floor==0) only, mirroring the gov-API/Elmhurst siblings.
New strict-raise _pashub_floor_exposure (ADR-0015).
#1603a — alternative walls. New AlternativeWall survey dataclass +
extract_alternative_walls (the "Alternative Wall"->"Windows" section) +
_map_pashub_alternative_walls -> sap_alternative_wall_1/2. The cascade
deducts each alt-wall area from the part's main opaque wall (no double
count), so a mixed-facade dwelling is billed at each sub-area's own
construction. The alt-wall block lodges "As Built" (capital B) — aliased to
the existing default insulation code.
#1603b — extension floor construction. ExtensionConstruction gains a floor
block (parsed like the main building) and _map_extension_building_part now
threads floor_type/construction/insulation/u_value_known, which the main
path already did and the extension silently dropped.
Cohort: within-0.5 50.2% -> 51.2%, MAE 0.652 -> 0.624, 0 strict-raise
errors across all 205. Verified-truth safe: none of the 7 verified
dwellings have alt walls, and #1602 moves the one it touches (2 Philips
exposed ext floor) by -0.00. pyright 0-new (mapper baseline 39). Goldens
test_full_building_construction + end_to_end EXTENSION_1 updated.

The extractor now captures "Heating System (Other):" and the mapper resolves
it to the Table 4a code (301, community boilers) + Table 12 community fuel
(51 via the shared _resolve_community_heating_fuel_code), so
is_heat_network_main routes the DLF / standing-charge / 80%-efficiency
branch instead of pricing the dwelling as an ordinary mains-gas boiler
(fixture 507644414148: +14.3 over-rate closes by ~8.6). Harness MAE
1.726 -> 1.684; ceiling ratcheted to 1.70.
