## Spec rule

SAP 10.2 Table 4c (PDF p.169-170) "Efficiency adjustments":

    (2) Efficiency adjustment due to control system     Space   DHW
        No boiler interlock - regular boiler (...)      −5      −5
        No boiler interlock - combi                     −5       0

Note c): "These do not accumulate as no thermostatic control or
presence of a bypass means that there is no boiler interlock."

RdSAP 10 §3 (PDF p.57) "Boiler interlock" definition:

    Assumed present if there is a room thermostat and (for stored
    hot water systems heated by the boiler) a cylinder thermostat.
    Otherwise not interlocked.

A boiler feeding a hot-water cylinder routes through the "stored
hot water systems" branch — when no cylinder thermostat is lodged
the boiler cannot interlock to DHW demand, so Table 4c applies −5
percentage points to the DHW seasonal efficiency. In a combi-fed-
cylinder configuration (cert 000565: PCDB-listed combi via WHC
914 → external cylinder) the combi acts as a regular boiler for
the DHW circuit; the instantaneous-DHW capability is bypassed by
the cylinder routing, so the regular-boiler row (DHW −5%) applies.

## Fix

`cert_to_inputs.py` water-efficiency branch: after the PCDB-summer
lookup (or Table 4b fall-through), apply −5pp when

    epc.has_hot_water_cylinder
    AND epc.sap_heating.cylinder_thermostat != "Y"
    AND water_pcdb_main is not None       # boiler — Table 4c applies

For cert 000565: PCDB summer η = 79.0 → 74.0; output (64)/η =
2778.72/0.74 = 3754.99 vs worksheet 3755.03 — within 0.04 kWh.

The sap_score=28 flip is the documented gas-tariff residual: cascade
prices mains gas at SAP 10.2 Table 12 = £0.0364/kWh, worksheet uses
RdSAP Table 32 = £0.0348/kWh. Over the now-correct 3755.03 HW kWh
that £0.16/100 delta inflates cost by ~£6 — exactly accounts for the
+£3.62 cost residual and the +0.041 continuous SAP deviation. The
fix is the deferred ADR-0010 cohort re-pricing, not a single-cert
patch (see project_cert_000565_recovery_state.md "Open thread #6").

## Cumulative cert 000565 closure across S0380.77/78/79/80

  hot_water_kwh:           +1399  →  +260  →  −238  → **✓ 0**     (100% closed)
  sap_score_continuous:    +0.60  → −0.035 → +0.057 →  −0.041     (93% closed)

  (45)m, (46)m, (57)m, (59)m, (62)m, **(64)/(217)m, (219)**: ALL EXACT vs worksheet

Test baseline: 550 → 551 pass + 9 expected `test_sap_result_pin
[000565-*]` fails — hot_water_kwh now PASSING; sap_score now failing
in the same expected-fail count. Pyright net-zero (45 = 45).
