Yes, you will have the bonus all the time, even when the power is off. There are a number of IO's that work this way, including the -knockback pieces and the Luck of the Gambler +recharge.
Yes, it's just costing you one slot. Using IO's, though, you can easily hit ED limits on both recharge and heal by using five slots.

I don't know what DP stands for, but the unique is always active, regardless of where it's slotted. Hoarfrost also takes resist damage and endurance reduction enhancements.|

Personally, I put it in Permafrost's default slot since there's nothing else I'd rather put there.
DP = dullpain = hoarfrost.
Slotting in permafrost would be my first choice as well.
Unfortunately, i wont be takin that power. Nor tough/weave.
So if i wanna slot a steadfast in my ice/ tank I would have to put it in DP.
Now.
What slot would you give up on hoarfrost if you slot 3 rech/3 heal usually?

Get 5 doctored wounds in there(not the heal/end/rech one), and use the sixth slot for the unique. You will only lose 5ish % for the total rech and heal that way
