No problem, I wasn't sure you had realised that.
I guess if you can use a good filter before the heat exchanger you might have a chance.
Really I think given your budget constraints that you are better off going with an air source unit for now.
Focus your efforts on the house insulation for now. 100mm of polystyrene isn't enough, I'd aim for at least 200mm along with the good airtightness that others have mentioned.
