SAP 10.2 Appendix N3.1 (PDF p.105) "Circulation pump and fan":
"For electric heat pumps: The electricity used by the water
circulation pump or fan is included within the calculated annual
space and hot water heating efficiency and is not included in
worksheet (230c). **The default heat gain from Table 5a is included
via worksheet (70).**"
This rule applies the Table 5a row "Central heating pump in heated
space" GAIN (3 / 10 / 7 W per pump-age bucket) to electric heat
pumps even though the pump ELECTRICITY is hidden in the COP and
excluded from (230c). The "Not applicable for electric heat pumps
from database" clause in Table 5a footnote a) scopes only to the
PCDB-Table-362 cascade case (Appendix N1.2.1: "For heat pumps held
in the PCDB ... a single water circulation pump serving the heat
emitters is sufficient" — pump kWh AND gain embedded in COP).
S0380.160 over-stripped the gain by zeroing pump_w for every HP
category-4 main, conflating the PCDB-Table-362 case with the Table-4a
default cascade. This slice refines the HP gate in
`_any_main_system_has_central_heating_pump`:
- Cat 4 HP WITH `main_heating_index_number` lodged (PCDB Table
362) → continue (skip; pump in COP per N1.2.1);
- Cat 4 HP with SAP code in `_TABLE_4A_WARM_AIR_SAP_CODES` (Cat 5
warm-air HPs distribute via ducted air, no water circulation
pump; warm-air fan handled separately by Table 5a "Warm air
heating system fans" row, S0380.161) → continue;
- Otherwise (Cat 4 HP, Table 4a default cascade, water-emitter)
→ apply Table 5a default per Appendix N3.1.
Per-line walk on ashp (SAP code 214 air-to-water HP, Cat 4, no PCDB,
"Post 2013" pump age):
worksheet (70)[Jan] = 3.0000 W
cascade pre-slice = 0.0000 W delta = -3.000 W
The -3 W winter gain shortfall over-stated cascade (84) Total gains
by -3 W in heating months → cascade SH demand +12.27 kWh/yr
(cascade 9302 vs worksheet 9290), pushing continuous SAP down 0.024
because the cost residual was driven by the +1.5 kWh × 12 month
shortfall flowing through the £0.0741 low-rate cost.
Closures:
ashp: ΔSAP -0.0240 → +0.0000 EXACT, Δcost +£0.55 → +£0.00 EXACT
gshp: ΔSAP -0.0178 → -0.0000 EXACT, Δcost +£0.41 → -£0.00 EXACT
ΔPE +36 → +25.51 (and ΔCO2 +7.33 → +6.31) — residuals narrow to the
Elmhurst-vs-spec HW PE annual-vs-monthly Table 12e/12d quirk only
(same pattern as the 16-variant lighting-PE deferred cohort,
scaled by HW kWh = 1138 vs 2384 → 25.51 vs 48.66). Cohort
Σ |ΔSAP_c| 0.07 → 0.03; all 25 cascade-OK variants now SAP+cost EXACT.
Cohort-1 (cert 0380 et al.) golden fixtures unaffected — those certs
lodge `main_heating_index_number` (PCDB Table 362) → HP gate skips
correctly → (70) = 0 preserved. Cert 000565 (HP main 1 + gas boiler
main 2) unaffected — wet-boiler branch fires for main 2.
Verbatim spec quote (SAP 10.2 Appendix N3.1, PDF p.105):
"For electric heat pumps: The electricity used by the water
circulation pump or fan is included within the calculated annual
space and hot water heating efficiency and is not included in
worksheet (230c). The default heat gain from Table 5a is
included via worksheet (70)."
Tests: 906 pass (+1), 0 fail. Pyright net-zero (35 → 35).

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
