SAP 10.2 §9.4.11 (PDF p.30): "The efficiency of gas and liquid fuel
boilers for both space and water heating is reduced by 5% if the
boiler is not interlocked for space and water heating."
S0380.141 had subtracted the -5pp from BOTH `Pwinter` and `Psummer`
PCDB / Table 4b seasonal efficiencies BEFORE running the SAP 10.2
Appendix D §D2.1 (2) Equation D1 monthly cascade. The Elmhurst P960
worksheet for `pcdb 1` (PCDB 716 oil boiler, Pwinter 65 / Psummer 53,
Cylinder Stat=No → no interlock) shows the -5pp is applied to the
η_water,monthly OUTPUT of Eq D1, NOT to its inputs. The two
interpretations diverge because Eq D1's reciprocal weighting (1/η_w
and 1/η_s) is non-linear in η.
Worked example for pcdb 1 Jan (Q_space=1409.77, Q_water=387.86):
Old cascade: Eq D1(60, 48, …) = 56.9292 % (off −0.04 pp)
Worksheet: Eq D1(65, 53, …) = 61.9725 %
−5pp = 56.9725 % ≡ (217)m_jan ✓
Across all 12 months the post-Eq-D1 form matches worksheet (217)m to
1e-4 every month. Cascade HW kWh: 7068.41 → 7063.96 (= worksheet (219)
total exactly), Δ −4.45 kWh.
The spec text "reduced by 5%" does not explicitly state pre- vs post-
Eq D1 ordering. Per [[feedback-software-no-special-handling]] mirror
the Elmhurst engine — the worksheet output is unambiguous.
Changes:
- `_apply_water_efficiency` gains a `interlock_penalty_pp: float = 0.0`
kwarg. Eq D1 branch runs on raw (Pwinter, Psummer), then subtracts
`interlock_penalty_pp / 100` from each monthly efficiency before
dividing.
- Caller (`cert_to_inputs` orchestrator) now passes the raw seasonal
efficiencies in `eq_d1_winter_summer_pct` + the penalty separately.
The pre-Eq-D1 `eq_d1_winter_summer_pct[0] -= 5` block is removed.
- SH-side `eff -= 0.05` (line 5349) is unchanged — the SH cascade
doesn't go through Eq D1, just `(98c)m / eff_sh`.
Closures `pcdb 1`:
ΔSAP_c −0.0108 → +0.0000 (1e-4)
Δcost +£0.24 → +£0.0000
ΔCO2 +1.33 → +0.0000
ΔPE +5.70 → −0.0000
No regressions on the other 25 cascade-OK variants — the gate is
`no_interlock AND eq_d1_winter_summer_pct is not None`, which fires
only when Cylinder Stat=No on a gas/oil boiler cert. The 6 Elmhurst
U985 cohort + cohort-2 Elmhurst fixtures all lodge Cylinder Stat=Yes
(interlock present) → no penalty fires; cohort-1 ASHP certs lodge no
cylinder thermostat at all but route through Appendix N3 instead of
Eq D1. 38 cohort-2 + 9 ASHP golden fixtures all PASS unchanged.
The 41-variant heating-systems corpus cascade-OK tier is now CLOSED:
all 25 variants SAP / cost / CO2 / PE EXACT vs Elmhurst worksheet at
abs < 1e-3 (most < 1e-4). Σ|ΔSAP_c| = 0.0001 (= floating-point noise).
Tests:
- test_apply_water_efficiency_applies_interlock_penalty_after_equation_d1
- test_apply_water_efficiency_interlock_penalty_zero_keeps_raw_eq_d1
911 pass / 0 fail; pyright net-zero 43 → 43.

Model Repository
This repository contains the code pertaining to the development of the data science and machine learning products being utilised by Hestia.
The different folders in this repository relate to services that can be used independently, or can be imported and used as part of a larger application
Getting Started
Prerequisites
Dev Container Setup
This repo uses a Docker Compose-based dev container. The model-backend service joins a shared-dev Docker network so it can communicate with other local services (e.g. a frontend container) running on your machine.
VS Code users: The initializeCommand in devcontainer.json creates the shared-dev network automatically before the container starts. No manual step required — just open the repo and select Reopen in Container.
Non-VS Code / CI workflows: Run the following once before starting the container:
make dev-setup
This is idempotent and safe to re-run if the network already exists.
Folders
backend/
This folder contains the code for the fastapi backend service, which provides an interface to much of the functionality in this repository, for the frontend
model_data/
This folder contains related to the reading and preparation of assessment model data, including pulling out epc attributes
Testing
All tests can be run, against the configuration in pytest.ini running
pytest
This will run the complete panel of tests and report on coverage in the locations specified by the pytest.ini file.
To run tests in a specific service, e.g. inside of model_data, simply run
pytest --cov-config=model_data/.coveragerc --cov=model_data
This will produce the test results and coverage reports
