The gov-EPC API `wall_construction` enum diverges from the calculator's
internal WALL_* code-space (confirmed by the description-vs-code audit across
the corpus): API 1-5 align (granite/sandstone/solid-brick/cavity/timber), but
API 6=basement, 8=system built, 9=cob — whereas the calc constants are
WALL_SYSTEM_BUILT=6, WALL_COB=7, WALL_PARK_HOME=8, WALL_CURTAIN=9. Codes 8 and
9 therefore fell OUT of u_wall's `known_types` and resolved only via the
`walls[].description` fallback, with two failure modes:
- System built (API 8): a cert lodging no description silently defaulted to
cavity (1.5) instead of the system-built U (RdSAP 10 Table 6, e.g. band E
as-built 1.7). Latent in the corpus (all 43 carry a description) but a
silent mis-bill waiting to happen.
- Cob (API 9): a LIVE bug — calc WALL_CURTAIN=9 (set by the Summary path's
"CW" mapping, paired with a curtain_wall_age) intercepts code 9 in the
`construction == WALL_CURTAIN` branch, billing the cob wall at the curtain
default 2.0 regardless of description.
Fix, split by where each can be disambiguated safely:
- System built: `u_wall` gains `_GOV_API_WALL_CODE_TO_TYPE = {8: WALL_
SYSTEM_BUILT}`, resolving code 8 directly (calc WALL_PARK_HOME=8 is never
dispatched, so no collision; gov 6=basement is left to the basement
machinery — cannot remap 8→6).
- Cob: translated at the API mapper (`_api_wall_construction_code`, 9 →
WALL_COB=7) where the source is unambiguously the gov enum — the gov API
has no curtain code, so an API 9 is always cob. Applied to main + alt
walls across the from_rdsap_schema_* builders. The Summary path's "CW"→9
curtain mapping is untouched.
Worksheet harness UNAFFECTED (47/47, 0 divergers — Summary path unchanged).
API gauge 65.1% -> 65.3% within-0.5 (mean|err| 1.075 -> 1.059): the n=1 cob
cert now computes cob instead of curtain. 3 AAA tests (u_wall system-built
without description; mapper cob 9->7; aligned/system/basement pass-through).

`_CYLINDER_SIZE_CODE_TO_LITRES` held only codes 2/3/4 (Normal/Medium/Large →
110/160/210 L); codes 5 (Inaccessible) and 6 (Exact) fell through to None,
so the Table-13 high-rate fraction AND the cylinder storage loss were skipped
for those certs (20 code-6 certs in the API sample).
Per RdSAP 10 Specification (10-06-2025) §10.5 Table 28 (PDF p.55):
- Code 6 "Exact": use the lodged measured volume. The gov API carries it in
`cylinder_size_measured` (e.g. 150 L) — now plumbed through the 21.0.0/21.0.1
schema → mapper → `SapHeating.cylinder_volume_measured_l`.
- Code 5 "Inaccessible": 210 L if off-peak electric dual immersion, 160 L from
a solid-fuel boiler, otherwise 110 L (n=0 in the current sample, but
spec-complete).
New `_cylinder_volume_l_from_code` centralises Table 28 resolution and replaces
the three raw-dict call sites (`_hot_water_cylinder_volume_l`, the cylinder
storage-loss path, and the PCDB performance check) so all three honour codes
5/6 identically. `_cylinder_inaccessible_volume_l` applies the code-5 context
rule via the existing immersion/off-peak-meter/solid-fuel-boiler detectors.
Worksheet harness UNAFFECTED (47/47, 0 divergers): the Summary path lodges
neither code 5/6 nor a measured volume. API gauge: within-0.5 64.4% -> 65.1%
(mean|err| 1.085 -> 1.075) — the 20 code-6 certs now size their cylinder from
the measured volume. 4 AAA tests (code 6 measured; code 5 solid-fuel/default/
off-peak-dual-immersion). pyright net-zero.

The main-wall `u_wall(...)` call dropped the `dry_lined` kwarg, so the RdSAP 10
§5.7/§5.8 (PDF p.40-41) Table 14 dry-lining adjustment — U_adj = 1/(1/U₀ +
0.17) for a dry-lined (incl. lath-and-plaster) uninsulated wall — was never
applied to any main wall, even when the cert lodged `wall_dry_lined=Y`. The
ALTERNATIVE-wall path already passes `dry_lined` (line 1367); this one-sided
omission billed every dry-lined main wall at the un-adjusted (too-high) U →
wall heat loss too high → SAP under-rated.
Per-cert: a solid-brick (construction 3) band-A 230 mm main wall computes
U₀=1.70; dry-lined it is 1/(1/1.70+0.17)=1.32 — we were 22% too high. Across
the API gov-EPC sample the dry-lined `wall_construction=3` (solid brick)
sub-cohort sat at 10% within-0.5 / signed -1.33.
Fix: pass `dry_lined=bool(part.wall_dry_lined)` to the main-wall `u_wall`
call, mirroring the alt-wall path. `part.wall_dry_lined` is already plumbed
(Optional[bool], None → False). The three dry-lining branches in `u_wall`
(stone §5.6, solid-brick-by-thickness §5.7, generic uninsulated bucket §5.8)
are all spec-correct and already worksheet-validated (the bucket-0 cavity
case against cert 7700 age-C → 1.20).
Worksheet harness UNAFFECTED (47/47, 0 divergers): the Elmhurst/Summary
extractor only captures dry-lining for ALTERNATIVE walls (Summary §7), never
the main wall, so `part.wall_dry_lined` stays None on that path — this is a
pure API-path improvement. API gauge: within-0.5 60.1% -> 64.4% (mean|err|
1.163 -> 1.085, signed -0.097 -> +0.049). Both affected buckets improved
with no overshoot: solid brick (wc=3) 50% -> 57% within-0.5; cavity (wc=4,
dry-lined via the §5.8 bucket-0 path) 68% -> 72%.

The §2 (13) draught-lobby fix landed the +46.3 kWh space-heating over-count
on the worksheet; the tracked diagnostic's header and run-banner now reflect
the closed state (Δ +0.0036 SAP, sub-2dp-rounding) instead of the open gap.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
A flat accessed via an unheated corridor/stairwell assumes a draught lobby
is present, so SAP 10.2 §2 line (13) = 0.0 rather than the 0.05 no-lobby
infiltration penalty. Per RdSAP 10 Specification (10-06-2025, p.30, "Draught
lobby"): "add infiltration 0.05 if draught lobby is not present, or use 0.0
if present. ... Flat or maisonette: Assume draught lobby if entrance door is
facing corridor (heated or unheated) or stairwell."
Signal: a SHELTERED alternative wall (the RdSAP §5.9 wall-to-unheated-corridor
surface) is the evidence that the flat's entrance faces a corridor — the same
evidence the corridor door (Table 26 U=1.4) rides on. New helper
`_has_sheltered_corridor_wall` factors that check out of `_corridor_door_count`
and gates `_has_draught_lobby`. Houses and exposed-gable flats (no sheltered
alt wall) keep the lodged value / "assume no lobby if cannot be determined"
default, so the §2 cascade is unchanged for every non-corridor dwelling.
The cascade previously added the 0.05 penalty unconditionally, over-counting
(16)/(18)/(21) by 0.05 ACH. On simulated case 34 (cert 001431 storage flat)
this lifted effective air change (25)m from the worksheet's monthly 0.572-0.638
to 0.574-0.668, over-counting space-heating demand (98) by +46.3 kWh/yr
(+0.41%) -> SAP -0.18. Closing it lands (25)m exactly on the worksheet (avg
0.6024) and (98) at 11356.3 vs ws 11357.2:
case 34 SAP 35.1325 -> 35.3130 vs ws 35.3094 (Δ -0.1769 -> +0.0036)
Guard-rails held (both improved): worksheet harness 47/47, 0 divergers (the
other corridor flat, cert 2474, -0.32 -> -0.02); API gauge 60.0% -> 60.1%
within 0.5, mean|err| 1.167 -> 1.163.

A door opening to an unheated corridor/stairwell takes U=1.4 W/m²K (RdSAP 10
Table 26, p.51 — any age band) instead of the 3.0 external-door default, and
its area deducts from the SHELTERED wall, not the main wall (RdSAP §3.7,
p.18: "the door of a flat/maisonette to an unheated stairwell or corridor
... is deducted from the sheltered wall area"). The cascade previously
billed every door at the external U on the main wall.
Signal: a SHELTERED alternative wall (`is_sheltered`, the RdSAP §5.9
wall-to-unheated-corridor surface, already modelled) is the evidence that
the dwelling is accessed via an unheated corridor, so one lodged door opens
to it. `_corridor_door_count` returns 1 when a sheltered alt wall is present
and >=1 door is lodged, else 0 — so the door channel is unchanged for every
non-corridor dwelling (houses, exposed-gable flats). `heat_transmission_
from_cert` gains a `corridor_door_count` param (default 0): it splits the
door area into external (main wall, age-default U) + corridor (sheltered
alt wall, U=1.4), threading the corridor door's area into that wall's
opening deduction and billing it at 1.4.
Validated on TWO faithful worksheets: simulated case 34 (cert 001431
storage flat — doors 8.14 exact, fabric 207.47 ≈ ws 207.48) and the
long-standing worksheet-harness diverger cert 2474 (−0.87 → −0.32, the
"space-demand thread" was the dropped corridor door). The worksheet harness
is now 47/47 with ZERO divergers.
API SAP gauge: 57.6% → 60.0% within 0.5; mean|err| 1.185 → 1.167; signed
−0.165 → −0.115 — ~22 sheltered-corridor flats were a systematic gap.

The §11 layout parser keys a window's wall Location on the glazing-prefix /
orientation tokens around its data row. An alt-wall window lodges its
"Alternative wall 1" Location wrapped across the lines bracketing the W×H×A
row. For a DOUBLE-glazed alt window the prefix line also carries the glazing
phrase ("Double between 2002 Alternative wall"), so the partition breaks
there and the location survives into the window's pre-data slice. For a
SINGLE-glazed alt window the "Alternative wall" line stands alone with no
glazing-type word, so _partition_after_manuf scanned past it and swallowed
it into the PREVIOUS window's suffix — the window then defaulted to
"External wall" and its opening deducted from the wrong wall.
Fix: treat a standalone wall-location line ("Alternative wall" / "External
wall" / "Party wall") as a window boundary in _partition_after_manuf, so it
attaches to the following window's prefix. Surfaced by simulated case 34
(cert 001431 electric-storage flat): 2 of 4 single-glazed alt-wall windows
were mis-allocated, splitting 2.75/10.78 m² instead of the worksheet's
4.63/8.90 corridor/external opening areas.
Elmhurst-extractor only; API gauge unaffected. Regression gate green (3
pre-existing fails unrelated); worksheet harness 47/47 unchanged. Case 34's
alt-wall opening area now matches the worksheet; the corridor wall net area
is correct (the cert's residual is now isolated to the unheated-corridor
door, a separate slice).

The Elmhurst Summary §7 lodges "Alternative Wall N Sheltered Wall: Yes" for
a sub-area adjacent to an unheated buffer (e.g. a flat's corridor wall),
but the extractor dropped it and _map_elmhurst_alternative_wall never set
SapAlternativeWall.is_sheltered — so the cascade billed the sub-area at its
full exposed U instead of the RdSAP 10 Table 4 (p.22) sheltered U =
1/(1/U + 0.5).
The calculator already applies is_sheltered (_alt_wall_w_per_k) and the
gov-API path already wires sheltered_wall=="Y"; this brings the Elmhurst
front-end to parity. Three-part change: AlternativeWall.sheltered field +
_alternative_walls_from_lines parse ("Alternative Wall N Sheltered Wall") +
_map_elmhurst_alternative_wall is_sheltered=a.sheltered.
Surfaced by simulated case 34 (cert 001431 electric-storage flat): the
6.02 m² corridor wall billed at full U=1.50 (9.03 W/K) instead of the
sheltered 0.86 (5.18 W/K) — +3.85 W/K, -1.61 SAP. Post-fix the alt wall
matches the worksheet's (29a) 5.177 and case 34 closes from -1.61 to -0.30
(remaining residual is a separate window/wall area-allocation thread).
Elmhurst-mapper only: API SAP gauge unchanged (57.6% within 0.5); worksheet
harness 47/47 unaffected; regression gate green (3 pre-existing fails
unrelated); pyright net-zero.

The Elmhurst dwelling-type classifier keyed "Top-floor flat" on a "dwelling
below" floor lodgement. A single-storey flat exposed BOTH top (a real
external roof) AND bottom (floor over partially-heated space, no dwelling
below) therefore fell through to "Ground-floor flat" — which the cascade's
_dwelling_exposure maps to has_exposed_roof=False, dropping the external
roof entirely.
Surfaced by simulated case 34 (cert 001431 reconfigured as a slimline
electric-storage flat): the worksheet bills (30) External roof = 39.98 m²
x U=2.30 = 91.95 W/K — the dominant heat-loss element — but the cascade
dropped it, under-stating space-heating demand by 42% (6550 vs 11357
kWh/yr) and over-predicting SAP by +21.76 (57.07 vs worksheet 35.31).
Fix: an exposed (non-party) roof puts the flat on the top storey
regardless of what is below it. Classify as "Top-floor flat" whenever the
roof is exposed; the flat's exposed floor is recovered downstream by the
existing per-BP is_above_partially_heated_space / is_exposed_floor override
in heat_transmission (§3). Party-roof flats ("another dwelling above") are
unaffected and stay Ground-/Mid-floor.
This is an Elmhurst-mapper (dwelling_type) bug, NOT a calculator bug: the
calculator correctly trusts dwelling_type, and the gov-API path supplies
the position directly (cert 0036 — a genuine ground-floor flat whose API
data lodges a "Pitched, no access" roof construction under another dwelling
— stays party, 2.51 W/K). API SAP gauge unchanged (57.6% within 0.5);
worksheet harness 47/47 unaffected; case 34 roof now exact (residual -1.61
is a separate flat-corridor wall-U thread). Regression gate green (3
pre-existing fails unrelated).

Don't offer a like-for-like gas boiler swap to a dwelling whose existing gas
boiler is already at least as efficient as the new condensing boiler (SAP 10.2
Table 4b codes 102/104 = 84% winter) — it gains nothing, and the dwelling gets
the tune-up (cylinder + controls) instead. `_already_condensing` compares the
existing code's Table 4b winter efficiency to 84%; a non-Table-4b code (solid
fuel) has no comparable efficiency and is never treated as already-condensing.
The gate is GAS-ONLY: a non-gas boiler → gas is a fuel switch whose value (cost
/ carbon) is not captured by winter efficiency, so oil/LPG/coal → gas is never
suppressed on efficiency grounds (only gated on the mains-gas connection).
This correctly demotes the gas-with-cylinder example (cert lodges code 114
"Regular, condensing", 84% winter) to a tune-up case — confirming that 114→102
is ~0 boiler-efficiency gain in both our calc and Elmhurst (both Table 4b 84%);
Elmhurst's uplift there came from the cylinder + flue, not the boiler. The
boiler-with-cylinder overlay stays validated by the lpg pin (code 115, non-
condensing + cylinder) and by recasting the 114 fixtures' code to a pre-1998
non-condensing boiler (110) in the boiler tests — the overlay overwrites the
code to 102 regardless, so only eligibility changes, not the delta-0 result.
New tests: an already-condensing gas boiler yields no boiler upgrade (but a
tune-up); an oil condensing boiler is not gated (the fuel switch survives).

When a property lodges an Alternative Wall, pdftotext interleaves the §11
"Location" column ("Alternative wall 1") into the wrapped glazing-TYPE cell,
producing labels like "Double between 2002 Alternative wall and 2021 1
Alternative wall" (cert 001431 storage-heater variants, simulated case 34).
The existing greedy trailing-suffix strip (\s+Alternative wall.*$) truncates
at the FIRST "Alternative wall", losing "and 2021" and yielding the
unmatchable "Double between 2002". Added a fallback that removes EVERY
"<External|Alternative|Party> wall [n]" fragment and any stray 1-2 digit
location index from the raw label, then retries the lookup. Loss-free: no
glazing-type key contains a wall-location phrase or a bare 1-2 digit number
(install-date years are 4 digits).
Unblocks the Summary cascade for any property with an Alternative Wall;
Summary-path only (the API path receives structured glazing codes, so the
API gauge is unaffected). Regression gate green (1 pre-existing fail
unrelated).

The Elmhurst Summary section 15.1 "Hot Water Cylinder" block lodges
"Immersion Heater: Dual" / "Single"; the extractor dropped it, so the
Summary path left immersion_heating_type = None while the API path already
captured it. Capturing it drives SAP Table 13's high-rate-fraction
DHW-cost split (RdSAP 10 section 10.5 p.54: 1 = dual, 2 = single) and
brings the two front-ends to parity.
Three-file change: WaterHeating.immersion_type field +
_extract_water_heating parse (scoped to the 15.1..15.2 slice) +
_elmhurst_immersion_type_code mapper (strict-raise on an unmapped label,
mirroring _elmhurst_cylinder_insulation_code).
Safe to land now that the preceding commit zeroes the high-rate fraction
for 18-/24-hour tariffs: the 20 solid-fuel corpus certs (solid fuel 4-11:
WHC 903 dual immersion, 18-hour meter, 110 L) carry a dual immersion, but
their 18-hour tariff bills 100% low-rate per Table 12a's 7-/10-hour scope
— so they stay EXACT instead of regressing to the 10-hour-column ~0.10.
7-/10-hour Summary immersion certs now correctly cost the Table 13
high-rate fraction instead of falling to the immersion=None 100%-low
default.
Regression gate green (3 pre-existing fails unrelated); API gauge
unchanged (Summary-path-only): 57.6% within 0.5, mean|err| 1.185.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
SAP 10.2 Table 12a (PDF p.191) is titled "High-rate fractions for systems
using 7-hour and 10-hour tariffs"; its "Immersion water heater" row lists
the tariff as "7-hour or 10-hour" only, routing to Table 13. An 18-hour or
24-hour tariff is OUTSIDE the table's scope — it provides at least 18
hours/day at the low rate, more than enough to heat any immersion cylinder
off-peak, so the high-rate fraction is 0 (all DHW billed at the low rate).
`electric_dhw_high_rate_fraction` previously mapped 18-/24-hour to the
10-hour equations (returning ~0.10 for a 110 L dual immersion) on an
over-literal reading of Table 13 Note 1 ("at least 10 hours"). The Elmhurst
dr87 worksheet for solid fuel 5 (cert 001431: 18-hour meter, 110 L dual
immersion, WHC 903) refutes that: HW (245) high-rate = 0.0 kWh, (246)
low-rate = 100%. Table 12a's title bounds the table to the two named
tariffs; 18-/24-hour fall outside it.
Resolves the Table-13 blocker on the immersion-extractor fix: once the
Summary extractor captures the dual immersion, the 18-hour solid-fuel
corpus certs stay at high_frac=0 (matching their worksheets) instead of
regressing to the 10-hour-column 0.10.
API SAP eval unchanged: 57.6% within 0.5, mean|err| 1.185, signed -0.165
(the cached sample has no 18-hour WHC-903 certs; one 24-hour cert shifts
sub-threshold). Regression gate green (3 pre-existing fails unrelated).

pdftotext can wrap the §11 building-part column onto the glazing-TYPE
token without an intervening glazing-gap descriptor, e.g. "Double between
2002 and 2021 1st" (the "1st" marks the 1st Extension). The existing
trailing-gap fallback only strips the fragment when preceded by "N mm";
the bare ordinal raised UnmappedElmhurstLabel.
New `_ELMHURST_GLAZING_LABEL_TRAILING_BP_RE` strips a trailing ordinal
("1st"/"2nd"/…) or "Main" and retries the lookup. No glazing-type key
ends in an ordinal or "Main", so it is loss-free. Surfaced by worksheet
`simulated case 33` (direct-acting electric boiler + immersion), which
previously could not be routed through the Summary cascade.

SAP 10.2 §9.4.9 (PDF p.32) verbatim: "A cylinder thermostat should be
assumed to be present when the domestic hot water is obtained from a heat
network, an immersion heater, a thermal store, a combi boiler or a CPSU."
RdSAP 10 Table 29 (p.56) points the no-access default at this rule.
The storage-loss Table 2b temperature factor previously read only the
lodged `cylinder_thermostat` ("Y") — so an unlodged thermostat always took
the ×1.3 absent-penalty, over-stating storage loss by 30%. New
`_cylinder_thermostat_present` assumes it present when DHW is from a heat
network, WHC 903 (immersion), or a direct-acting electric boiler (SAP code
191 — electric-resistance, immersion-equivalent).
Found via the worksheet-folder harness: cert 2474-3059-4202-4496-3200
(Summary path: WHC 901, main SAP 191, electric, no lodged cylinder stat)
diverged −1.86 from its dr87 worksheet. The worksheet lodges (53)
temperature factor 0.6000 (present) and "add cylinder thermostat (SAP
increase too small)" — already assumed present. Fix lands HW output (64)
2701.99 → 2323.88, EXACT to the worksheet; 2474 −1.86 → −0.87 (residual is
a separate space-demand fabric thread). No other worksheet in the 47-cert
harness moved.
API eval within-0.5 56.9% → 57.6%; mean|err| 1.197 → 1.185; signed

SAP 10.2 Table 3 (PDF p.160) verbatim: "For heat networks apply the
formula above with p = 1.0 and h = 3 for all months." The primary
circulation hours for a heat-network main are fixed at h=3 winter and
summer, independent of the cylinder-thermostat / separate-timing
lodgement that selects the h=5/h=11 rows for boiler systems.
`primary_loss_monthly_kwh` / `primary_circuit_hours_per_day_table_3` gain
a `heat_network` flag (→ (3, 3)); `_primary_loss_override` passes
`_is_heat_network_main(main)`. p=1.0 was already pinned via
`_HEAT_NETWORK_PIPEWORK_INSULATION_FRACTION`; only the hours were wrong.
Before, cert 8536 routed through the h=5/3 row because its community
biomass DHW fuel (31) collides with electricity code 31, so
`_separately_timed_dhw` returned False. The Table 3 heat-network rule
overrides that path: 8536 primary loss (59) 335.81 → 273.90, EXACT to
the faithful case-32 worksheet (storage (56) 376.58 also matches 376.94).
API eval within-0.5 57.0% → 56.9% (one offsetting-error cert crosses

A heat-network main with DHW from the network and no lodged cylinder was
billed the Table 3a keep-hot 600 kWh/yr combi loss (cat 6 sat in
`_TABLE_3A_COMBI_LOSS_MAIN_HEATING_CATEGORIES`). A heat network is not a
combi boiler — SAP 10.2 §4 line 7702 says combi loss is 0 for non-combi
systems.
SAP 10.2 p.24 "Heat networks" (c): when neither a PCDB Heat Interface
Unit nor a lodged cylinder applies, "a measured loss of 1.72 kWh/day
should be used, corrected using Table 2b. This is equivalent to a
cylinder of 110 litres and a factory insulation thickness of 50 mm".
RdSAP 10 Table 29 (p.56): a cylinder thermostat is assumed present when
DHW is from a heat network (Table 2b temperature factor 0.60).
New `_apply_heat_network_hiu_default_store` rebinds the 110 L / 50 mm-
factory store (thermostat present) onto a heat-network DHW cert with no
cylinder and no PCDB index, mirroring `_apply_rdsap_no_water_heating_
system_default`. The injected store routes storage loss (56) ≈ 376.7
kWh/yr (= 1.72 × 0.60 × 365) + primary loss (59) through the existing
machinery and zeroes the combi (61) loss via the has_hot_water_cylinder
gate. Verified against the user's faithful case-32 worksheet: storage
(56) 376.58 vs worksheet 376.94.
Cert 8536 storage 0→376.6, combi 600→0. API eval within-0.5 56.8% →
57.0%; signed err −0.218 → −0.205. Reworked
`test_heat_network_main_with_hw_from_main_dlf_scales_hot_water_kwh` to
assert the DLF scaling directly (fuel ÷ §4 output = 1.41) since the old
two-cert baseline premise (both combi-600) no longer holds.

Replace the flat placeholder scalars (boiler £3000; tune-up £500/£900) with a
per-dwelling composite cost, mirroring the ASHP architecture (ADR-0025): a
`HeatingRates` table (data, `heating_rates.json`), typed `BoilerCostInputs` /
`TuneUpCostInputs`, pure `Products.boiler_bundle_cost` / `tune_up_cost`, and
modelling-layer interpreters that read the dwelling into those inputs.
The cost mirrors the Simulation Overlay component-for-component, sharing the
controls + cylinder pricing across both options:
- tune-up (standard) = standard controls + cylinder fixes
- tune-up (zone) = zone controls + cylinder fixes
- boiler upgrade = £3200 all-in + standard controls (only when the upgrade
fired a controls change) + cylinder fixes
Standard controls are priced INCREMENTALLY — only the parts missing to reach
SAP 2106 (programmer £120 / room thermostat £150 / TRV £35×radiators), read
from a Table 4e Group-1 feature map so a dwelling that already has a room
thermostat + TRVs is only charged the programmer. Zone controls are a full
smart kit (hub £205 + smart TRV £50×radiators) — the smart TRV is itself the
room sensor, so there is no separate per-room sensor line. Cylinder fixes:
jacket £50 (when under-insulated) + thermostat £150 (when absent). The boiler
is a like-for-like wet swap (no radiators/flue/pipework — eligibility already
requires an existing wet boiler), so those dead-code extras are not modelled.
Figures are research-validated 2025/26 UK installed costs (legacy Costs.py
lineage); fully-loaded totals with one contingency on top (Model B, not the
legacy VAT/preliminaries engine). Contingency: boiler 0.26; tune-ups 0.10
(was a 0.15 placeholder). ADR-0027 records the design; CONTEXT.md's Heating
Eligibility entry updated to cover the partial boiler/tune-up family + composed
cost. Products cost pins (delta<=1e-9) + interpreter tests + generator
composite-cost assertions.

The GOV.UK API lodges a junk empty leading building part (all fields
None) ahead of the real Main Dwelling on some certs. Four sites in
cert_to_inputs.py read `sap_building_parts[0].construction_age_band` →
got None → silently dropped the dwelling age band. New `_dwelling_age_band`
helper takes the first part that lodges a band (a no-op for normal certs
where [0] is the Main part).
Closes two age-band-keyed defects on the 5 affected certs:
- SAP 10.2 Table 12c (p.193): the heat-network Distribution Loss Factor
defaulted to the K-or-newer 1.50 instead of the dwelling's true band
(cert 8536-0929-6500-0815-7206 is age A → 1.20), inflating distribution
loss by 30%.
- RdSAP 10 §4.1 Table 5 (p.28): the empty band ("") fell through the
age-band branches to the H–M habitable-rooms branch, defaulting in
phantom extract fans. The true band A correctly yields 0 fans
(bands A–E → 0).
Cert 8536: 31.76 → 41.12 vs lodged 39 (was −7.24, now +2.12). API eval
mean|err| 1.197 → 1.192, signed −0.229 → −0.218; headline within-0.5
holds at 56.8% (8536 lands at +2.1, a documented overshoot vs the
faithful case-31 worksheet — separate slice).

Drops the xfail now that Reduced-Field Synthesis (ADR-0027) maps every
20.0.0 cert; the corpus test holds the whole bucket to a strict 1000/1000.

ADR-0027 Reduced-Field Synthesis: certs with no per-window array now get total
glazing = 0.148 x TFA x band-multiplier (median + quartile multipliers fit from
the 1000 real 21.0.1 certs), split 4-way across N/E/S/W with width=area/4,
height=1.0; glazing_type routed through the verified 21.0.1 cascade. Also guard
optional PhotovoltaicSupply.none_or_no_details (a parse straggler). Corpus maps
983/1000, up from 974.

Required->optional defaults (kw_only + data-driven from corpus presence) so
993/1000 certs that omit sap_windows parse, and honest Union[str, DescriptionV1]
typing for description/dwelling_type which the corpus lodges as localised dicts
in ~half the certs. The never-run 20.0.0 mapper path now produces EpcPropertyData;
974/1000 corpus certs map (xpass), up from 7.

Sharpen the glossary to decouple deterministic old-schema re-mapping from
neighbour-prediction gap-fill (a separate, unimplemented ML path), and add
the Reduced-Field Synthesis term. ADR-0027 records the pre-SAP10 20.0.0
mapper's best-attempt synthesis (corpus-fit glazing 0.148xTFAxband, 4-way
orientation) and its trade-offs. Grill resume doc captures every resolved branch.
