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
over-charged and flipped the cluster from over- to under-rating.
1,000-cert 2026 API sample: cat-10 mean |err| 7.11 → 5.26, signed mean
+5.08 → -0.86 (now balanced, 22 over / 26 under — the systematic
directional bias is gone). Overall mean |err| 2.16 → 2.04. Full §4 suite
green (2406 passed).

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.
Mirror of S0380.228 (same fallback bug for electric SECONDARY heating).
1,000-cert 2026 API sample (no worksheet for this cluster — ±0.5-vs-lodged
fallback bar): cat-10 mean |err| 9.49 → 7.11, %<0.5 10.4% → 16.7%;
headline %<0.5 42.5% → 42.9%, overall mean |err| 2.29 → 2.16. cat-7
(storage) and cat-2 (gas) unchanged. Full §4 suite green (2405 passed).

RdSAP10 `wall_construction == 6` is canonically WALL_SYSTEM_BUILT — a
WALL TYPE — but the gov-EPC basement heuristic hijacked it: Elmhurst
lodges both "SY System build" and "B Basement wall" as code 6, and the
API lodges basements as code 6 too, so a system-built wall was
mis-flagged `main_wall_is_basement` → wrong RdSAP §5.17 / Table 23
u_basement_wall/u_basement_floor overrides, and downstream the solid-wall
Recommendation Generator couldn't offer EWI/IWI on system-built walls.
System-built stays the wall type on its canonical code 6; the basement
signal moves OFF code 6 to a dedicated `is_basement` (SapAlternativeWall)
/ `wall_is_basement` (SapBuildingPart) Optional[bool] flag:
- Elmhurst: `_elmhurst_wall_is_basement` sets it from the distinct
"SY"/"B" labels (False for SY, True for B, None otherwise).
- gov-EPC API: per-wall code 6 can't be told apart at lodging time, so
`from_api_response` post-processes via `_clear_basement_flag_when_
system_built` — when the cert addendum marks the dwelling system-built,
the code-6 basement heuristic is cleared. A genuine basement (no
addendum signal) keeps the code-6 fallback.
- `main_wall_is_basement` / `is_basement_wall` honour the flag when set,
else fall back to the code-6 heuristic — so untouched API basements and
the cert 000565 "B" cohort are unchanged.
`EpcPropertyData.system_build` is a derived property over the wall type:
the MAIN wall is system-built iff `wall_construction == 6` and it is not
flagged basement. System-built lives on `wall_construction`; the basement
attribute is separate.
Acceptance: a system-built main wall (Elmhurst SY, or API addendum
system_build) → wall_construction == 6, main_wall_is_basement is False,
system_build is True; a genuine basement main wall → main_wall_is_basement
is True, system_build is False. Full §4 suite green (2404 passed).

RdSAP10 `wall_construction == 6` is canonically WALL_SYSTEM_BUILT, but
the gov-EPC basement heuristic hijacked it: Elmhurst lodges both "SY
System build" and "B Basement wall" as code 6, so a system-built wall
was mis-flagged `main_wall_is_basement` and routed to the RdSAP §5.17
`u_basement_wall` override instead of the system-built U-value table.
System-built stays on its canonical code 6; the basement signal moves
to an explicit `is_basement` (SapAlternativeWall) / `wall_is_basement`
(SapBuildingPart) Optional[bool] flag, set by the Elmhurst mapper from
the distinct "SY"/"B" codes via `_elmhurst_wall_is_basement` (True for
B, False for SY, None otherwise). The `main_wall_is_basement` /
`is_basement_wall` properties honour the flag when set and fall back to
the gov-EPC API code-6 heuristic when None — so the API path (basement
lodged as integer 6, no flag) and the cert 000565 "B" cohort are
unchanged.
Acceptance (a recommendation-summary generator depends on it): a
system-built MAIN wall reports wall_construction == 6 AND
main_wall_is_basement is False; a genuine basement main wall still
reports main_wall_is_basement is True.

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),
deferred to its own slice.

System-built (precast/no-fines concrete) takes both solid-wall Options like
solid brick (ADR-0019), keyed on `wall_construction == 6` (WALL_SYSTEM_BUILT,
Elmhurst `SY`). A basement-suitability guard (`main_wall_is_basement`) is added
since a below-ground basement wall is never EWI/IWI-suitable.
This is currently inert: `B Basement wall` also maps to 6 (mapper.py:2100) and
`main_wall_is_basement` is derived as `wall_construction == 6`, so every code-6
wall reads as basement and is guarded out — the live cohort is unchanged. The
system-built EWI/IWI cascade pin is committed as a strict-xfail tripwire that
flips green the moment the calculator disambiguates system-built from basement
(MAIN wall_construction==6 with main_wall_is_basement False). `wall_construction
== 8` is Park home, not system-built — not keyed.

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).

Slice 3c.6. The integrating proof through real Postgres: two solid-brick
uninsulated dwellings, identical but for the planning status Ingestion caches
per UPRN. Ingestion writes the spatial reference; Modelling reads it back off
the Property and gates the wall measures — the listed dwelling gets neither
EWI nor IWI, the unrestricted one gets a wall measure. Closes slice 3c
(ADR-0019/ADR-0020).

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
This also worksheet-pins S0380.224's loose-jacket storage loss magnitude
at 1e-4, previously only direction-validated.

Slice 3c.5. `PropertyPostgresRepository` takes an injected `SpatialRepository`
and hydrates `Property.planning_restrictions` by UPRN (bulk in `get_many`,
single in `get`). A UPRN with no cached row — or a property with no UPRN —
defaults to unrestricted, matching legacy `empty_spatial_df` (ADR-0020). This
closes the loop: Ingestion caches the protections, Modelling reads them off the
Property to gate solid-wall EWI/IWI (ADR-0019).
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Slice 3c.4. Ingestion now resolves the whole spatial reference in one lookup
(`spatial_for`) — the coordinates drive the Solar fetch as before, and the
reference (coordinates + planning protections) is persisted per-UPRN via
`uow.spatial` in the same write batch, so Modelling can read the protections
back off the Property (ADR-0020). `_Fetched` carries the UPRN and the reference
into the write phase.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Slice 3c.3. Ingestion writes the OS spatial reference cache through the same
unit it persists the EPC/solar enrichments with, so `UnitOfWork` declares a
`spatial` repo, `PostgresUnitOfWork` binds a `SpatialPostgresRepository` to the
session, and `FakeUnitOfWork` gains a `FakeSpatialRepo` (seedable for read
tests, recording writes for ingestion-side assertions).
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Slice 3c.2. The OS Open-UPRN reference set is too large to host in Postgres, so
it lives in S3 and is cached per-UPRN in the existing `property_details_spatial`
table (ADR-0020). `PropertyDetailsSpatialRow` mirrors that table (uprn unique);
`SpatialRepository` / `SpatialPostgresRepository` upsert one shared row per UPRN
and read the planning protections back by UPRN (a null flag reads as
unrestricted; absent UPRNs are omitted so the caller defaults them).

the prioritised cluster bugs it exposed (cost (255) -334 = the +9 SAP

Slice 3c.1. Ingestion will persist a UPRN's coordinates and planning
protections together as a write-through cache, so resolve them in a single
partition read rather than two. `SpatialReference` bundles the coordinates
(which drive the Solar fetch) and the `PlanningRestrictions` (which gate wall
insulation per ADR-0019/ADR-0020); `GeospatialRepository.spatial_for(uprn)`
returns it, and `coordinates_for`/`planning_restrictions_for` now delegate to
the one lookup.

The Summary-path mapper raised UnmappedElmhurstLabel for a §15.1
"Cylinder Insulation Type: Jacket" lodging — only "Foam" (→1, factory)
was mapped. SAP10 cylinder_insulation_type uses 2 for loose jacket
(matching the GOV.UK API codes), and SAP 10.2 Table 2 Note 1 gives it a
separate ~2× storage-loss factor that the cascade now handles
(S0380.224). Add "Jacket" → 2 for cross-mapper parity with the API path
and so the loose-jacket storage-loss branch fires on the Summary path.

eval_api_sap_accuracy.py — % within 0.5 SAP, error histogram, worst-40,

the single highest-ROI worksheet to generate: an electric-storage-heater

Slice 3b+3d (ADR-0019/0020). Property gains a planning_restrictions attribute
(default unrestricted); the ModellingOrchestrator threads it from the Property
through _plan_for -> _scored_candidate_groups -> _candidate_recommendations into
recommend_solid_wall, replacing the unrestricted default. run_modelling exposes
a planning_restrictions param so the offline harness can inspect restricted
properties. Integration test: a listed solid-brick dwelling that gets IWI when

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).
Validated: certs 2211 (band B, SAP 49.8 vs lodged 52) and 3420 (band C,
11.2 vs 11) now compute. §4 + golden suite 2395 passed — the corpus

Slice 3a (ADR-0020). PlanningRestrictions relocated out of the solid-wall
generator into domain/geospatial/ as the shared, Property-level value object
(three distinct flags + measure-specific blocks_external/blocks_internal).
GeospatialRepository gains a non-abstract planning_restrictions_for defaulting
to None (sources without the flags need not implement it); GeospatialS3Repository
reads conservation_status/is_listed_building/is_heritage_building from the same
Open-UPRN partition as the coordinates (legacy column names — to confirm in the
S3 deep-dive). Shared _row_for helper dedups the partition lookup.

`_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
needs the loose-jacket branch. cert_to_inputs.py pyright unchanged at 32.

Slice 2e. recommend_solid_wall joins the orchestrator's fabric generator pool

catalogue + contingencies (26%) gain external_wall_insulation /
internal_wall_insulation. run_modelling on an uninsulated solid-brick dwelling
(baseline SAP 36.6) now selects internal wall insulation into the optimised
package; the catalogue-completeness guard covers both new measure types.
Golden cohort 57/57 still error-free; IWI now fires on a real cohort cert.

Slice 2d. A flat can take IWI (its own unit) but not EWI (whole-block
coordination) — ADR-0019. _is_flat handles both ingestion representations:
the Elmhurst name form ('Flat') and the API stringified RdSAP code ('2' = Flat

wall yields no solid-wall Recommendation (it is handled by recommend_cavity
_wall). PlanningRestrictions will be sourced onto the Property from the

Summary PDFs preprocessed from `pdftotext -layout` wrap the windows-table
header across several lines. The third header line's tail ("U value / g
value / Draught Proofed / Permanent Shutters") tokenises to "value value
Proofed Shutters" and lands directly above the FIRST window's data row.
Because the first window in a building part has `before_start = 0`, its
prefix block reaches back into that header remnant. The remnant is
neither an orientation nor a building-part fragment, so it survived the
pops in `_compose_window_descriptors` and leaked into glazing_type as
"value value Proofed Shutters Double between 2002 and 2021" (windows 2-3,
whose prefix starts after the previous window's manufacturer line, were
clean).
Fix: the glazing-type phrase always starts with a glazing-start word
(Single/Double/Triple/Secondary), so trim any prefix fragments preceding
that word before joining the glazing type. Orientation/bp pops still run
on the full prefix, so they are unaffected.
Reproduced from `sap worksheets/Recommendations Elmhurst Files/

Adds the user-simulated 001431 case (the cert that drove S0380.189/.190)
as an Elmhurst-only e2e fixture: Summary PDF → extractor → mapper →
calculator, every Block-1 SapResult field pinned against the
P960-0001-001431 worksheet at abs=1e-4. All 11 pins pass with zero
residual — the case is clean, confirming the S0380.190 gas-combi fuel
derivation closes the Summary path natively.
Verified the handover's flagged "+0.0007 SAP" was a target artifact, not
a cascade gap: the worksheet displays ECF (257) rounded to 1.6047 and
integer SAP (258)=78; the cascade's continuous SAP is computed from the
UNROUNDED ECF = (255)*(256)/((4)+45) = 660.9750*0.4200/173.0, giving
77.6147 — which matches the worksheet's own unrounded value. Pinning the
continuous SAP from the display-rounded ECF (→ 77.6144) was the wrong
target. Block-1 line refs all match exactly: (211) 10699.7225, (219)
3327.1592, (231) 86.0, (232) 283.2229, (255) 660.9750, (272) 3000.1664,

(reproduced on the simulated 001431 case).
SAP 10.2 Table 4b (PDF p.168) rows 101-119 are "Gas boilers (including
mains gas, LPG and biogas)": the code fixes the boiler type/efficiency but
NOT the carrier, so 104 alone can't distinguish mains gas from LPG. The
disambiguator is §15.0 "Water Heating Fuel Type" — a combi/boiler heats
space + water from one appliance — exactly mirroring the existing
liquid-fuel (codes 120-141) fallback. `_elmhurst_gas_boiler_main_fuel`
adopts the §15.0 carrier only when the SAP code is in 101-119 AND §15.0
resolves to a gas/LPG fuel, so a regular boiler + electric immersion
(§15.0 = "Electricity") still strict-raises rather than mis-billing gas
as electric.

Point-in-time note for the next agent: what S0380.185-189 shipped (worksheet
PE/CO2 pins, the two D_PV electricity-vs-gain fixes, and the thermal-mass-
parameter Table 22 fix), the per-line diagnosis template, the two worksheet-
block / gains-vs-solar traps, and the ranked open slices (Summary-path fuel
derivation first, then pin the simulated 001431 case, then cert 6035).

The §7 mean-internal-temperature cascade hardcoded the thermal mass parameter
(TMP) to 250 kJ/m²K at all 5 call sites, ignoring construction. RdSAP 10
§5.16 Table 22 (PDF p.48) makes TMP construction-dependent:
100 kJ/m²K — timber frame, cob, park home (regardless of internal
insulation); OR masonry (stone/solid brick/cavity/system
built) WITH internal insulation.
250 kJ/m²K — masonry WITHOUT internal insulation.
A too-high TMP inflates the §7 time constant τ = Cm/(3.6·H) (e.g. 40 h vs
16 h), under-cuts the temperature reduction between heating periods, and
over-states mean internal temperature → over-states space heating.
`_thermal_mass_parameter_kj_per_m2_k(epc)` classifies the MAIN building's
wall via the RdSAP `wall_construction` codes (5/7/8 = timber/cob/park) and
`wall_insulation_type` codes (3/7 = internal); unknown/curtain fall back to
the masonry 250 (no regression on unlisted classes). 17-case parametrised
test covers every Table 22 branch.
Diagnosis (per-line walk vs the user-simulated 001431 worksheet, same
archetype as golden cert 6035): fabric (26-37), internal gains (73), climate
(96)m and HTC (39) all EXACT; the entire +8.78 PE / -1.76 SAP gap was §7 MIT
(92) +0.71 °C, traced to TMP 250 vs Table 22's 100 (solid brick WITH internal
insulation). Fix closes the simulated case to 1e-4 on PE and CO2.
Blast radius: only golden cert 6035 re-pins (solid brick + internal
insulation) — SAP resid -6 → -2, PE +46.42 → +19.16, CO2 +1.07 → +0.42. The
47 dr87 cohort, 6 U985 fixtures and 41-variant heating corpus are all
masonry-no-internal → TMP unchanged at 250, all still pass. 2290 pass
(+17 new), 0 fail; pyright net-zero.

A single durable doc so agents can pick up the calculator without reading
historical handovers: (1) the accuracy bar for the two input paths
(site-notes 1e-4 vs worksheet; API 1e-4 when a worksheet exists, ±0.5
register fallback otherwise; cross-mapper parity); (2) the per-line-walk
debugging loop incl. comparing site-notes vs API; (3) the tools &
pipeline (Summary PDF → extractor → from_elmhurst_site_notes →
cert_to_inputs → calculate_sap_from_inputs → SapResult, plus the API
from_api_response front-end, section helpers, and where the test vectors
live). Pointer added from SAP_CALCULATOR.md; HANDOVER_* flagged as
point-in-time notes.
