Depends if it’s still live

Is the pipe still live? The tap would be fitted between that outlet and the appliance. What are you expecting the kitchen supply to serve?

just a 4 point gas hob

Very difficult question without seeing what is actually involved. But if they give you what you want with a Worcester filter and are accredited by Worcester that’ll give you a 10 year warranty. The appliances are not cheap, but I would have a few quotes and not estimates. Recommended installers are worth paying for

hi just to update you.
got another two quotes and ended up choosing the installer who will install a valliant echotec 838, 13 stelard rad and two towel rail rads. this quote was 3k more than the alpha installer but a very similar price to the two worcester 42cdi quotes we got.
