This is the one for our boiler - no reason tiny internal parts couldn't be mounted in your own box.

or use something like this and only have the sensing probe visible

I'd settle for the lower probe mounted at the top of the window sheltered by the overhang (so stripping out of the mount) or painted to match window colour. But maybe it's too late now.]]>

"I was under the impression that all heat pumps were considered permitted development with only a few exceptions."

From the link DJH pasted, you will see that it is PD with conditions. Many installs fall foul of the 1M and volume rules.]]>
