Under Approved Document L, the current design figure to work to is 55\u00b0C, and on most domestic condensing boilers the dial can be adjusted from typically 40\u00b0C up to 80\u00b0C. Where it sits decides three things at once: how efficiently the boiler runs, how warm the property gets, and whether the appliance condenses at all.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Getting it right is one of the cheapest efficiency gains available on an existing system.
