Default Optimal boiler temperature setting

That may not be true.. my boiler is most efficient at full output and
is a few % less if the output is reduced.


I suspect full output is referring to burner power, not the water
temperature.


I'd add full output with the return temperature low enough such that
maximum condensing occurs.
