That article was generally informative, but they forgot (as far as I could tell after a quick read) to include something very important: How much heat can that Daikin heat pump provide? 3kW? 6kW? 10kW? Can it provide more than a standard air-to-air heat pump which typically can provide less than 7kW under optimal (read: Not that cold outside) conditions? This is important to know before buying one (any type of heat pump)

"from £12,500" I guess it comes in different sizes

To be honest the prices I see out there are still generally 'luxury' anyway. If i am spending £20k on a boiler, then an extra £2k to have a secondary gas system that never/very rarely gets used wouldn't bother me at all.
