PAT not calibrating Roof Insulation

Dear All, I have been trying to calibrate a smalloffice DOE prototype. I changed the original model on 4 levels including Roof Insulation, Ext Wall Insulation, WWR-North and WWR-East. During the calibration, electricity and natural gas consumption were being calibrated within 5%. The calibration successfully guessed the WWR-East value and the Ext- Wall Insulation R value however not the Roof and WWR-North values. Do you have any tips on what could help with the calibration? I have attached a picture with the final PAT calculated values and the bounds/std.deviation/deltaX entered in the calculation. Really appreciate any tips..
