I think I'm being a bit stupid, but I can't work out the operation of these units. If you have a instantaneous gas water heater do you have to keep changing the unit's set temperature when you want to fill a kitchen sink or have a shower? For a kitchen sink the temp could be 50C, so you set the heater to 50C and that should be the max you get, but the flow rate would be limited depending upon the heater's power. But if you want a shower, if you leave the dial at 50C then the flow will be lower than when it's set to (say) 40C. Does this have any effect on the shower head flow or does the shower thermostatic mixer handle it all?
