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).

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
