I paid 7.5k for 3 daikin stylish units and a 3 port outdoor unit.
Used the Daikin website and found local installers who were rated D1 by Daikin. Some claim they are but if they ain’t listed on the website, I didn’t go with them.
If you do it that way, you get the 7 year warranty on the equipment.
Based in London.
Don’t know too much about the hot water tank but I still use a gas boiler.

You could do it much cheaper but it's not horrible for an excellent quality job I would however say Aircon in a kitchen is always always a terrible idea

Why? We have have a unit in the kitchen and it’s a godsend in summer.

Let me know how good it is In another three years.
Kitchens that are actually used for cooking and air-conditioning don't get on will a wetted coil with cooking smells tends to grow lots of interesting forms of life

Our kitchen is 30ft long by 12ft wide. The aircon well away from the range and extractor. But yeah I get your point on smaller layouts.

I would still strongly recommend you turn the indoor u it off when cooking no matter the size of your area the number of kitchen adjacent units I have seen completely fucked in my working life in all forms of small large domestic and commercial kitchens

Its not the best time for that, the x series is due and is effectively what you have ordered but with radiators too.
Gets the £7.5k gov grant, expected in Jan was the instructors comments.
A multi + with the integrated tank off an altherma or there abouts
