	RE: Why are ASHP installs so expensive? By Majordennisbloodnok, 4 weeks ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	Exactly. I don't have a problem with "sundries" being a big proportion; I would just want to know why and have evidence the scale was justified. The point at which a quote lands with the customer, the...
	RE: Why are ASHP installs so expensive? By Toodles, 4 weeks ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	@majordennisbloodnok I must say that I was impressed when my installers started their work, at the huge trays of very shiny copper bends and other fittings that were there in front of them to use to m...

	@old_scientist And the all important anti freeze valves which are not cheap!
	RE: Why are ASHP installs so expensive? By Majordennisbloodnok, 4 weeks ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	Looking at it from the other end, if I were to receive a quote for £10k - £15k then I'd want to burrow into any and all categories that were over about 5% of the total, and I'd want to burrow far enou...
	RE: Why are ASHP installs so expensive? By Old_Scientist, 4 weeks ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	Playing devil's advocate for a moment. After the major items have been listed - the ASHP, DHW tank and radiators (all of which were multi £thousand items in my installation), how much level of detail ...
	RE: Why are ASHP installs so expensive? By ian33a, 4 weeks ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	I have the impression that the design software doesn't, by default, spit out a breakdown of pricing. I did receive one quote which had some detail, but it wasn't much. Most of the others have been a l...
	RE: Why are ASHP installs so expensive? By Mars, 4 weeks ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	@rob-of-york I’m firmly with you on this, and it’s a conversation I’ve had repeatedly with installers as well as watched play out online. Whenever we’ve had work done at home outside the heat pump wor...
	RE: Why are ASHP installs so expensive? By JamesPa, 4 weeks ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	For some reason that type of breakdown seems rare. I asked for some early (high price) ones to be broken down and, surprise, surprise, they refused. With later ones, I didn't bother on the grounds t...
	RE: Why are ASHP installs so expensive? By Rob of York, 4 weeks ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	Posted by: @jamespa You can avoid this by knowing what your house loss either from a single survey or your gas consumption, and roughly how many rad changes you need (which would be from a survey) an...
	RE: Why are ASHP installs so expensive? By springswood, 4 weeks ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	Thanks for all the interesting responses. I managed to find that YouTube clip I mentioned (Everything Home - Why I snubbed an Octopus heat pump install) where he has at least twice as many bedrooms a...
	RE: Why are ASHP installs so expensive? By JamesPa, 4 weeks ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	Thanks. I am personally on the page of measuring house loss (and I did it myself). We are not yet at the stage of creating 'content' (but we are getting there), I fully intend there to be strong enc...
	RE: Why are ASHP installs so expensive? By JamesPa, 4 weeks ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	They dont have to justify in cost terms, thats how competition works. Are the prices of Apple products justifiable in cost terms, of course not, but people still buy them, and those who, like me, don...
