Had our boiler serviced today and I've now noticed that the boiler man set the heating temperature dial on the boiler all the way up to max. The heat has been banging out this afternoon and the boilers are scalding to the touch - which is less than ideal with a toddler about. Previously I had the setting at about 2/3 and the temp when the boiler was on was about 65C. On max the temp was up to 85C!
In my mind 85 is far too hot. I appreciate that the higher the temp, then the higher the return temp and the water can keep recirculating, thereby saving energy. But what is an ideal temperature to have the heating water set at?
Thanks in advance.
