Is a condensing boiler the same as a combination boiler?
Hi. No, these are not the same thing. A Combi-boiler can be a type of condensing boiler that does not need a tank and just heats the water on demand. A combi boiler can be of a condenisng type - in other words there are combi boilers that are condensing boilers. However, there are many types of condensing boiler that do have a holding tank, so not all condensing boilers are combi-boilers. By the way, if you are looking into a combi boiler, make sure that your installer has factored in your likely hot water usage and that this type of system will supply you what you need even at peak times.
How does condensate return to a boiler?
Condensate is what you get when you condense steam (water) that was heated in a boiler to make the steam. I'm not sure what else you are looking for.

You can't because it is non potable water. That is why there is a Watts 9D check valve on your boiler. You need a heat exchange water tank to do what you want.
How do condensing boilers work?
Condensing boilers are designed to increase energy efficiency by using the wasted heat from flue gases to heat water up before it even reaches the main boiler. These boilers are very energy efficient and are mandatory or preferred in many countries.
Is water condensing a physical or chemical change?
water condensing is a physical change.
What makes a boiler lose water pressure?
A leak on the return or supply lines and the automatic feeder is not working
What are the advantages of having a Combi condensing boiler?

It saves you money the fact of instead of not installing a water unit with it, yet you still can simply can get water out of the tap. A disadvantage is, it can only supply one outlet at a time. It is very slow to fill a bath. If it is rush hour and many people are getting ready for work, the water pressure may be so low it doesn't work at all.If someone flushes the loo, or runs water elsewhere - you may loose all your water.

In boiler feed water line the NRV is normally installed between Pump and stop valve if the line is short and an another NRV is installed at boiler entrance and after stop valve if the line is long or pump is 10 to 15 m away from the boiler.
Can you incorporate a solid fuel back boiler into a pressure water system it would be nice not to have to use so much oil and take advatage of our wood burning stove?
Yes, If it is a pressurized system, the water from the back boiler and your oil or gas fired boiler can be mixed. This can also be achieved by using a water to water plate exchanger to preheat the return water from your heating devices. If you have a forced air heating system in the house, a coil can be placed in the main trunk line of the duct work and heated by circulated water from the back boiler.
