Is it more economical to set the water temperature thermostat on a central heating system high or low?
Typical heating boiler setpoint is around 180*, if you are looking to economize, look into having a reset control installed. The reset control will adjust the boiler setpoint based on outdoor air temperature. On a 70* day you would have 70* boiler water temp with a reset schedule of 1.5, for every degree outdoor temp drops below 70 the boiler temp would rise 1.5* so on a 0* day, boiler temp would be 175*. The reset schedules are adjustable.

Is boiler a closed system?
A boiler can be a closed system if you include the pipes it is connected to, but usually there are relief valves that will allow the escape of steam to protect against excess pressure and inlets that will allow adding liquid to the boiler to make up for fluid lost from the pressure valves. Also most boilers are imperfectly sealed so they leak a little bit. If you do not consider the attached piping, then a boiler would not be considered a closed system since it would be constantly sending out steam and receiving condensate in return.
