I have to say "what a load of nonsense".
A combi will feed a shower and a half!
The boiler gives about 30 kW and your 16 rads probably consume less than 14 kW.
An average shower needs about 10 litres per minute, if you have three and want them all to work together, that adds up to 30 li/min.
That combi boiler will give about 14 li/min !!! Its about the most powerful.
The other question is can your mains water supply give 30 li/min? I doubt it !
Boilers should be fitted by a CORGI registered engineer, who will advise you on the best solution to your situation, probably a pumped storage arrangement. many will not want to fit a boiler you purchased!
It may be worthwile to employ a competent engineer to specify the system.
