Saying that I haven't been following HP upgrades recently, but now you can slap a HP into any old property and it's cheaper to run than a gas boiler? Is this a new gas boiler or an old boiler.

How have things changed where you down need to super insulate your house now before putting in one?

What was the cost on install and outlay to get this saving on bills?

I might have misunderstood but I think the implication is that the government grant for installing an ASHP isn't available unless your home meets air tightness and insulation levels.

This has never been true. To qualify for the £7.5K grant you just needed an EPC of D or above, and loft insulation. The gov then removed the loft insulation requirement a while ago. There’s never been any mention of airtightness or anything else like that.
