I guess if you can afford a house and 7k in upgrades this increase isn’t probably have a significant impact on your finances. Good for you though, this is the way to go with renewables getting better and better.
The alternative was no heating. The boiler was fucked, radiators were shit and the pipework was mostly clogged microbore. Got a couple of home improvements in the process as well which was nice.
Just checked the quotes I had for it, there was very little price difference between getting a new heat pump or a new gas boiler, large part because all the heat pump install stuff was no VAT and the grant covering most of the cost.
