My understanding is that it's the flow temperature that's regulated by

But I'm not an expert either!



It's certainly true that the flow temperature of a non-condensing
non-modulating boiler is controlled by the stat - but I'm not sure whether
that applies to modulating condensing boilers.

What's your understanding of how modulation works?


That it modulates between 'nothing', and the stat setting...but I still
await others!
