There is no guarantee that ats.ID = 472 will be evaluated before ap.value::integer. You can't write SQL queries like they are a piece of programming logic, they are not always evaluated in order and may not be evaluated in the order you wrote them. My first guess it to write it up as a subquery;
select * from (select * from akh_test_suit ats LEFT JOIN akh_properties ap on ap.ID = ats.test_suit_type_id where ats.ID = 472) as sub WHERE value::integer = ID; Or unless you are specifically needing the performance, you could just allow pg to automatically coerce ats.ID to text.
