Octopus have a good quotation service that gives rough estimates. Bear in mind the current £7.5k grant for heat pump installs on offer by the govt (boiler upgrade scheme) and any other grants you may be able to take advantage of to improve efficiency ratings depending where you’re buying (eg Scotland has done the England don’t).
Also worth checking if the house is suitable. AFAIK if it’s rated EPC B or lower, or has advisories for loft/cavity wall insulation then that limits some of the grants you can get for ASHP and you may be better upgrading the insulation first, then heating second.

Thanks! This is great. The place is in Scotland and currently has a low EPC, but over time its "easily" fixed although time consuming and expensive through better insulation which we'll tackle in the spring no doubt. Sounds like fixing the immediate and then getting an update EPC might be the way to go...

Very broad question, but what is the approx cost of ASHP installation? We'll be looking to deprecate a split system for the house, partly run on oil and another partly run on a gas powered Rayburn which somehow heats radiators, fuck knows how as we haven't moved in yet.
I have no idea how much any of the removal and installation may cost but any ball park guesses would be great!
