They don’t make sense if you assume you are putting aircon in every room in the house, which is currently not something contemplated in any UK houses I know.
I am currently getting quotes for that, the point of my post was to point out the cost of an air source heat pump is greater than switching your entire house to air conditioning.
Try octopus energy, I got a fixed price quote for £2k less than any other installer.
I supplied the costings for everything and £2k doesn't change the realities that air source heat pumps are currently a rip off.
Air conditioning is significantly cheaper
