Octopus's own 6kW R290 heat pump, usually fitted by Octopus — with the £7,500 grant the all-in price often lands close to a new gas boiler.

Our verdict

The value disruptor. Octopus's bundled install plus the grant can make a heat pump astonishingly cheap, and the Cosy 6 itself is a capable R290 unit. Best if you're an Octopus customer.

Pros

  • Often near-boiler price after grant
  • Quiet
  • Slick app & tariff integration

Cons

  • Install tied to Octopus
  • 6kW suits small/medium homes
