Only the controller knows what circuits are on and the boiler just shoves out hot water. 2) 30-40 radiators sounds good, we have 24 plus...

I note your comment about HW - is the modern assumption that it will never have to heat the HW at the same time as the radiators and therefore will have plenty of...
