Is there a problem ? How is the volume of hot water in the shower ? You do have a auto mix valve to deliver tempered water . Looks like a steam package you don't want to go too high to break steam either.....

tankless temperature setting
I have a boiler and tankless hot water. I am wondering if the temperature setting for the tankless hot water is correct. It is currently set at 180 degrees. I have attached a couple of pictures of the device that controls the temperature setting (I think, thats why I'm including the pictures).
Is 180 degrees OK, or is too hot? The boiler runs occasionally in the summer. I'm assuming this keeps the water in the boiler hot enough to heat water for the tankless system.
Thanks for the help0 -
There is no problem. Partly, I'm looking to learn a bit more about how the system works. I was thinking I might save a tiny bit of fuel by lowering the temperature setting.
I'm not exactly clear what automix valve is used for. I assume it reduces the temperature of the hot water slightly by mixing in some cold water?0
