    The "best" is a very subjective opinion as most people will only have first hand knowledge of one system and the stats you get from the suppliers and installers will always lean towards their own products.

    You also have to allow for the "best" being significantly more expensive than, say, the 2nd best which might actually be a better buy.

    e.g. I'm completely making up these figures.... but lets say the best(based on COP, if thats the definition you like to use) costs €20k to buy and €500/yr to run and the 2nd best costs €15k and €750 to run.... which is the better one to buy?... in my opinion it would be the 2nd best as you will never see that extra €5k initial cost back.

    My recommendation is that you need to get at least 3 quotes, talk to existing users (not sellers) of those systems and then make a decision you are comfortable with based on all the factors... COP, initial cost, running cost, user feedback, installer support/service etc
