Slice 2 of the lighting generator (ADR-0023): detect non-LED bulbs
(incandescent + CFL + low-energy-unknown > 0) and emit one "Lighting"
Recommendation whose single low_energy_lighting Option converts every bulb to
LED — the overlay sets led = total, the other three counts 0. Priced as a flat
per-bulb average x the non-LED count, contingency 0.26; the description names
"LED" while the measure_type stays MEASURE_MAP-aligned. None when already
all-LED or no bulb counts are lodged.

Slice 1 of the lighting generator (ADR-0023): the first whole-dwelling,
top-level overlay surface. LightingOverlay carries the four fixed-lighting
bulb-count fields by their exact EPC names (all Optional, absolute counts) +
EpcSimulation.lighting. The applicator's _fold_lighting writes the non-None
counts directly onto the result EpcPropertyData by name (setattr) — simpler
than ventilation's nested fold since the counts live top-level. Baseline
unmutated; pyright strict clean.

With the mapper now in main, cert 001431 parses: it lodges four single-glazed
windows — codes 1 ("Single") and 15 ("single glazing, known data", a single
pane with manufacturer U/g). The generator only detected code 1, so it missed
two panes. Detect {1, 15}; set the secondary target to code 11 ("Secondary
glazing - Normal emissivity", what the cert re-lodges; score-neutral vs 7 but
exact).
A deterministic green pin proves the overlay reproduces the after's 14 windows
exactly. The full-SAP before->after pins are xfail(strict) tripwires: the
overlay nails the windows, but the measure also re-lodges percent_draughtproofed
84->100 (sealed units draught-proof the replaced openings) plus a ~0.4 SAP
fabric residual the overlay doesn't model yet — a glazing-measure coupling to
close later.

ADR-0019 warns that wall_construction code 8 is Park home (PH), NOT system-
built. It was already excluded (8 isn't in the constructable-options map), but
only implicitly. Add an explicit early-return + named constant so a park home
can never be mis-keyed as system-built, with a pin as the tripwire. A park
home's proprietary panel is never EWI/IWI-suitable.

The merged per-cert-mapper-validation work disambiguates Elmhurst 'SY System
build' from 'B Basement wall' (both lodged wall_construction=6), so
main_wall_is_basement is no longer wrongly True for system-built and the
solid-wall generator offers EWI+IWI. The strict xfail now XPASSes; drop the
marker so it stands as a real green cascade pin.

A room-in-roof carries its insulation on its own sloping/stud/gable surfaces
(RdSAP 10 §3.10, Table 17/18), which the roof overlay's flat
roof_insulation_thickness bump cannot model. Without a guard a RR with an
uninsulated loft fell through to the loft fallback and mis-recommended 300 mm
loft insulation. Return None when the main part lodges a sap_room_in_roof,
deferring until a dedicated RR branch lands (ADR-0021).

The worksheet build_epc() fixtures wrapped a module-level SECTION_6_VERTICAL_
WINDOWS tuple in list(), so every call returned the SAME SapWindow objects. A
test that mutated a returned window (the glazing slices flip glazing_type to
single) leaked that change into every later build_epc() -- which surfaced as
double_glazing-product failures in the first-run integration tests only when
test_console ran first in the same process.
Deep-copy the windows per call in all six fixtures (000474/477/480/487/490/516)
so each EpcPropertyData owns an independent window graph, and drop the
now-redundant defensive copy at the glazing test's call site.

Slice 3 of the glazing generator (ADR-0022): a conservation/listed/heritage
protection (PlanningRestrictions.blocks_external) hard-picks secondary_glazing
instead of double_glazing -- an internal second pane, since the external units
can't be replaced on a protected building. Each single-glazed window upgrades
to the secondary target pinned from cert 001431 (glazing_type=7, u_value=2.90,
solar_transmittance=0.85 -- the outer single pane still drives solar gain).
The before/after cascade pins for both measures remain deferred behind the

The glazing Recommendation Generator (ADR-0022): detect single-glazed

pinned from cert 001431's before->after (glazing_type=5, u_value=1.40,
solar_transmittance=0.72). The overlay writes the per-window U/g into
WindowTransmissionDetails because the calculator consumes those directly.

The double_glazing / secondary_glazing Elmhurst before→after Summaries the
glazing generator's cascade pins will use (ADR-0022). NB: these don't parse

"Double…"/"Triple…" variants) that the mapper must cover first.

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)

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.

The gov-EPC API mapper sets BOTH roof_construction (int) and
roof_construction_type (str, derived via _API_ROOF_CONSTRUCTION_TO_STR),
but the Elmhurst mapper set only the string — leaving roof_construction
None on every site-notes cert. The SAP cascade reads the STRING (so SAP
cross-mapper parity always held), but consumers of the int (e.g.
domain/sap10_ml/transform.py ML aggregates `main_dwelling_roof_
construction`) silently saw None on the Elmhurst path.
New `_elmhurst_roof_construction_int` maps the Elmhurst roof-type code to
the same SAP10 int the API lodges (F→1, PN→3, PA→4, PS→8, S/A→7),
harvested from the committed Summary fixtures. Unlike the wall map it
returns None (not a strict-raise) for unmapped codes: the int is not
cascade-load-bearing, so an unknown roof must not block the cert (vaulted
5 / thatched 6 / NR omitted until a fixture surfaces them).
The 6 hand-built U985 reference fixtures gain the matching
roof_construction int (4/4/3 etc.) so test_from_elmhurst_site_notes_
matches_hand_built_* still asserts structural parity. SAP output is
unchanged (cascade reads the string). §4 suite green (2407 passed); the
two pre-existing stone-§5.6 sap10_ml failures are unrelated/out of scope.

Slice 3 (ADR-0021). The dispatcher gains a flat-roof branch: a "flat"
roof_construction_type with no lodged thickness (uninsulated → None on the
Elmhurst path) gets a single flat_roof_insulation Option whose overlay raises
roof_insulation_thickness to 200 mm — tested before the loft fallback so a flat
roof's None doesn't trip the loft trigger. Pinned against the Elmhurst
before→after cert at 1e-4. Golden cohort roof firing unchanged (none across 57).
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Slice 2 (ADR-0021). `recommend_roof_insulation` now owns the loft branch as the
fallback — a plain pitched loft, a thatched roof (the covering doesn't block
insulating the loft floor), or an unlodged roof type all take loft (joist)
insulation at 300 mm when `roof_insulation_thickness == 0`. Sloping is tested
first; a no-access roof gets nothing. Retired the standalone
`recommend_loft_insulation`; the orchestrator and its tests now call the
dispatcher.
Pinned: thatch before→after (None→300) reproduces at 1e-4; the existing loft pin
still holds through the dispatcher. Behaviour-preserving on the golden cohort

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.

SAP 10.2 Table 12a Grid 1 (PDF p.191): an electric room heater (RdSAP

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.

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

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

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

Simulated case 19 (electric storage main + WHS 911 + 210 L cylinder):

Reference the calculator-side wall_construction=6 disambiguation issue from the
strict-xfail tripwire and ADR-0019, so the blocker is traceable both ways.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
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

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

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
"no system" cert (age G, 25 mm factory) is unchanged. cert_to_inputs.py
pyright unchanged at 32; new test suppresses reportPrivateUsage.

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 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
per PROPERTY_TYPE_LOOKUP). Completes slice 2's eligibility surface.

Slice 2c. recommend_solid_wall takes a PlanningRestrictions value object
(defaults unrestricted): a conservation area removes the EWI Option (external
appearance), a listed or heritage building removes both EWI and IWI (protected
fabric) -> None when nothing survives (ADR-0019). Plus a guard that a cavity
wall yields no solid-wall Recommendation (it is handled by recommend_cavity
_wall). PlanningRestrictions will be sourced onto the Property from the
geospatial layer in slice 3 (ADR-0020).

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
separate residual). §4 suite 2393 passed; heat_transmission.py pyright
unchanged at 12, test file at 71.

Slice 2b. Timber frame (wall_construction=5) takes internal wall insulation but
not external (not constructable — ADR-0019), so the generator offers IWI only.
Cascade pin: the IWI Option reproduces the re-lodged timber-frame after at
abs(diff) <= 1e-4 (general Table 6 insulation-thickness bucket, not the solid-
brick documentary path).

Slice 2a. New recommend_solid_wall emits one Main-wall Recommendation carrying
External + Internal wall-insulation Options for an uninsulated (wall_insulation
_type=4) solid-brick (wall_construction=3) main wall, each priced at the heat-
loss wall area. Cascade pin: the generator's EWI and IWI Options reproduce
their respective re-lodged afters at abs(diff) <= 1e-4.
Detection keys on wall_construction code, not description (ADR-0019 note
corrected): the Elmhurst ingestion path leaves walls[].description empty, so
the code is the only cross-path signal; codes 1-5 are consistent.

Slice 1 of solid-wall insulation. BuildingPartOverlay gains a
wall_insulation_thickness field; the generic applicator already folds it onto
SapBuildingPart by name. With wall_insulation_type=1 (EWI) / 3 (IWI) + 100 mm,
the calculator derives the post-insulation U-value (§5.8 documentary path,
λ=0.04 default) — and for IWI also lowers the thermal-mass parameter. Two new
Elmhurst before/after cascade pins (solid-brick EWI + IWI, cert 001431)
reproduce the re-lodged after at abs(diff) <= 1e-4 across SAP/CO2/PE.

Two certs fetched fresh from the GOV.UK EPB register, each with an
Elmhurst Summary PDF (input) and a dr87 worksheet PDF (the (1)..(286)
ground truth):
0340-2467-9260-2006-6521 (Summary_000922 / dr87-0001-000922)
5500-5070-0822-0201-3663 (Summary_000920 / dr87-0001-000920)
Both run through BOTH front-ends — from_api_response and
from_elmhurst_site_notes — and through the rating + demand cascades.
Cross-mapper parity holds: the two paths agree to <1e-4 on continuous
SAP, fuel cost, CO2 and PE. Both paths reproduce the worksheet exactly:
0340: (255) cost 776.4295, (272) CO2 2875.0498, (286) PE 16474.5616;
fabric (33) 171.6188, (37) 205.9358; SAP int 70 = lodged.
5500: (255) cost 751.8295, (272) CO2 2423.4547, (286) PE 14397.0118;
fabric (33) 141.1226, (37) 167.3696; SAP int 66 = lodged.
Pinned in two tables of test_golden_fixtures.py:
- _EXPECTATIONS / test_golden_cert_residual_matches_pin — SAP/PE/CO2
residual vs the integer-rounded lodged register (SAP resid +0 both).
- _WORKSHEET_PE_CO2 / test_golden_cert_pe_co2_matches_worksheet —
PE (286)/(4) and CO2 (272) vs the worksheet at +0.0000 (the
load-bearing 1e-4 check; lodged register is integer-rounded).
Dropped-field audit (raw JSON keys vs the schema-21.0.1 dataclass
fields consumed by from_dict) re-run on both fresh JSONs: no new
silently-dropped fields — only created_at metadata and the
shower_outlet_type/shower_wwhrs keys already handled by
_normalize_shower_outlets (mapper.py:2047). No calculator or mapper
change required; this is pure validation + regression-pinning.

Updated 2130's pin notes with the case-18 finding: our cascade reproduces
the worksheet PV split to the decimal (gen 2684.17 / onsite 970.77 / export
1713.40), so the Appendix M1 β-split is exact, not the suspected bug. With
the gas PE factor also exact (1.13) and the wall measurement now wired
(S0380.215), 2130's +2/-11.72 is the irreducible API-only lodged residual
(0240-like), not a closable calculator bug. Notes-only; pin unchanged.

The schema-21 SapBuildingPart never declared `wall_insulation_thickness_
measured`, so `from_dict` silently discarded it. When a cert lodges
`wall_insulation_thickness == "measured"` the actual value (mm) lives in
that dropped field, so the cascade fell back to the 50 mm "insulation
present, unknown thickness" default instead of the lodged measurement.
Cert 2130 Ext1 lodges solid brick band B + INTERNAL insulation
"measured"/100 mm. Per RdSAP 10 §5.7 Table 8 (insulated-wall U by age band
+ insulation thickness) the 100 mm row gives U=0.32; the unknown-thickness
fallback gave 0.55. New `_api_resolve_wall_insulation_thickness` substitutes
the measured value for the "measured" sentinel; the existing
`_insulation_bucket`/Table-8 path then computes the correct U. Field added
to schema 21.0.0/21.0.1 SapBuildingPart; domain field widened to
Union[str, int] to match `roof_insulation_thickness`. Isolated: 2130 Ext1
is the only bp lodging "measured" across all 47 fixtures.
This spec-correct fix EXPOSED an offsetting under-count it had been masking
(per the repo's no-special-handling rule — the pre-fix +1 was two bugs
cancelling): 2130 cont SAP 83.35 → 83.78 (resid +1 → +2), PE -7.56 →
-11.72, CO2 -0.045 → -0.095. The exposed -11.72 PE (~-746 kWh/yr) is the
deferred gas-combi-PE + PV-β-credit under-count from S0380.45/.49, now
un-masked — the next slice. Re-pinned 2130 with the cause documented.
Suite: 2391 passed, 1 skipped. Zero new pyright errors (mapper 32=32).

After three faithful-worksheet iterations (simulated cases 15/16/17), the
7536 +1 SAP residual is confirmed 0240-like — an Elmhurst register-rounding
residual not reproducible from the API-only JSON, not a calculator bug.
Case 17 is faithful on windows (Main 16.98 / Ext1 13.59 / Ext2 1.89) and
ground floors; every per-element value matches our cascade: walls
0.70/0.28/0.40, roofs 0.40/0.18/0.68 (S0380.214), window U-eff
2.4368/1.8519, ground floors 0.97/0.26/1.12. The only worksheet divergences
were manual-entry artifacts: case-16 inverted the floor order (put the
50.98 m² upper floor as ground), and case-17 auto-derived spurious "to
external air" exposed floors from the small-ground/big-upper geometry —
real 7536 lodges floor_heat_loss 2/7/3 (unheated-space / ground), none is
code 1 (exposed). Our spec-correct cont SAP is 68.924; lodged 68 carries
Elmhurst's own residual.
Notes-only; pin unchanged (resid +1, PE -6.1952, CO2 -0.1639). Suite green.

The Plan derives its Valuation Uplift (ADR-0018) from its baseline -> post
band jump and works+contingency cost, given one external input — the
Property's current market value (a Property Valuation, mostly absent).
`Plan.valuation` / `Plan.baseline_epc_rating` are derived like the other
headline figures; `PlanModel.from_domain` maps the £ forms to the live
plan.valuation_* columns (NULL when no value — the percentage is not
persisted on those columns). `Property.current_market_value` is the new
optional source; the orchestrator threads it onto the Plan. `run_one`
takes a `current_market_value` so the harness can value the uplift, and
the sense-check table shows the average % (always) plus the £ forms when
known.
Sourcing the current market value (upload / default) remains deferred
(ADR-0018); it is None throughout until that lands, so the columns stay
NULL at scale.

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.

The financial-uplift model per ADR-0018. `estimate_valuation_uplift(
current_band, target_band, current_value=None, total_cost=None)` returns
a `ValuationUplift`: band-transition uplift compounded from four broker
tables (MoneySupermarket / Lloyds per-step, Knight Frank / Rightmove
whole-jump), taking min/max/mean across the covering sources. Always a
percentage; absolute £ forms (increase at each bound + post-retrofit
value) only when a current market value is supplied; the 2x ROI cap
rescales the percentages and can only bite once a value is known. A
non-improving jump is a clean 0% no-op.
Pure function, no external dependency. Persisting it (where the value
lands) and sourcing the current market value stay deferred (ADR-0018).

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.

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.

test_rdsap_uvalues.py (stone §5.6 thin-wall formula vs Table-6 1.7 cap)

Golden cert 0390-2954-3640 (detached, TFA 360, age F) carried a +7 SAP /
-28 kWh/m² PE residual the audit attributed to a demand-side fabric gap.
Walking the §3 cascade localised it to the Main wall: lodged
wall_construction=4 (cavity), wall_insulation_type=4 (as-built / assumed),
description "Cavity wall, as built, partial insulation (assumed)". The
cascade mis-routed it to the Table 6 "Filled cavity" row (band F = 0.40)
because `_described_as_insulated` matches the "partial insulation"
substring.
RdSAP 10 Specification (10-06-2025) Table 6 — Wall U-values, England
distinguishes two cavity rows:
"Cavity as built" A-E 1.5, F 1.0, G 0.60, H 0.60, I 0.45, J 0.35, ...
"Filled cavity" A-E 0.7, F 0.40, G 0.35, H 0.35, I 0.45†, J 0.35†, ...
An "as built ... partial insulation (assumed)" cavity is the as-built
partial fill of the age band, NOT a retrofit cavity fill (a genuine fill
lodges the distinct "Cavity wall, filled cavity", wall_insulation_type=2).
It therefore routes to "Cavity as built" (band F = 1.0), mirroring the
worksheet-validated solid-brick rule in S0380.209 (cases 9/10: "as built,
insulated (assumed)" → as-built age-band row, not retrofit).
New `_cavity_described_as_filled` predicate is used only in u_wall's
cavity filled-row branch; it excludes the "partial insulation" substring
while keeping "insulated (assumed)" → filled (the unrelated, separately
asserted test_cavity_as_built_insulated_assumed_uses_filled_cavity_row is
unchanged). The shared `_described_as_insulated` (also consumed by the
roof/floor paths) is left untouched.
Wall HLC +53.6 W/K (U 0.40 → 1.0 over ~268 m²) lifts all four metrics
together — the signature of a real fabric bug, not a tuned offset:
SAP +7 → +0
PE -27.9745 → +0.5281 kWh/m²
CO2 -2.7134 → -0.1189 t/yr
Bands I-M are unaffected (the two rows coincide per the † footnote), so
golden certs 0535 (band M) / 7536 (band L) with "insulated (assumed)"
cavities continue to pin at 0. Full suite 2384 passed, 1 skipped.

The EPC renders a recent-band as-built wall as "<material>, as built,
insulated (assumed)". The API mapper populates epc.walls with that string,
and heat_transmission's wall_ins_present gate keyed off the "insulated"
substring → routed the wall to the RdSAP 50 mm "insulation of unknown
thickness" bucket (e.g. sandstone band J U=0.25) instead of the as-built
age-band row (U=0.35).
Per RdSAP 10 Table 8/9 footnote the 50 mm row applies ONLY when insulation
is "known to have been increased subsequently (otherwise 'as built'
applies)". An "as built ... (assumed)" description is the EPC's age-band
assumption — it only renders on RECENT bands (an old band renders "no
insulation (assumed)"), so the as-built row applies. Genuine retrofit is
signalled by wall_insulation_type (External/Internal/Filled), which the
gate still checks independently.
Worksheet-validated by two new Elmhurst worksheets, both As Built band J:
- simulated case 9: sandstone → (29a) U 0.35
- simulated case 10: solid brick → (29a) U 0.35
both the as-built row, NOT 50 mm (0.25).
Fix: restrict the description-based gate to genuine retrofit via the new
local `_described_as_retrofit_insulated` (excludes "as built"/"(assumed)").
The cavity filled-row routing inside `u_wall` (which uses
`_described_as_insulated` directly) is untouched — the 3 cavity API certs
(0390/0535/7536) are unaffected.
test_heat_transmission: the old `..._uses_50mm_row` test asserted 50 mm via
an IMPOSSIBLE band-B + "insulated (assumed)" combination; corrected to a
valid recent-band (J) scenario asserting the as-built row (35 W/K).
Golden 0240: walls 24.45 → 34.23 W/K (U 0.25 → 0.35). SAP integer 72
unchanged; PE residual re-pinned +1.8687 → +5.5044, CO2 +0.0907 → +0.2757.
This spec-correct fix REMOVED the wall under-count that was masking the
Ext1 vaulted-roof over-count (cascade U 0.68 via the same "insulated
(assumed)" description vs case-9 sloping-ceiling 0.25) — that roof
over-count is the next slice; fixing both lands SAP cont ≈ 72.31 (=
Elmhurst case 9).
