Hold on - 15k GBP?

An ordinary heatpump for an ordinary house should cost something like 3000 NZD including labor for installation. What are we doing differently?

Usually it's installers taking the piss on quotes because it's not a standard thing and they don't want to deal with it or think they can get away with it. The US has a similar issue in some places for heat pumps (but not AC, despite being the same damn thing).
