Please explain just how a condensing boiler is inherently quieter than

I didn't say that a condensing boiler is technically quieter then a
non-condensing. My last boiler was 28 years old and suffered from bad,
noisey kettling. In that respect a new boiler is quieter.

Oh - I'm not disputing that. However, kettling isn't inherent in a non
condensing boiler - it's a fault.

More likely in cast iron boilers

My new boiler warms up quicker presumably due to it firing up on all
cylinders in its modulating mode, which a lot of old boilers may not
have.

Modulating means *reducing* the heat output from maximum.

Additionally, due to our system being modified with the new
boiler installation, our boiler warms up the house quicker.

Well yes. But this has nothing to do with condensing or non condensing
boilers, that's all.

It is because it's not cast iron heats up faster.
