Re: Heat Pumps
Is this under the UK ECO4 grant scheme (or Scottish equivalent)? If so it should all be free. I know several folks around here who have had solar panels and heat pumps / new rads under the scheme, none of them paid anything. To qualify you need to be in receipt of one or more of these benefits..

Re: Heat Pumps
For Scotland, you can get a grant of up to £7,500 (£9,000 in rural properties) for energy efficient home improvements. You can also get a loan of up to £7,500 to install renewable heat in your home.
From energy savings trust (Linky)
