Nozzle Impacts

I told my service man I wasn't getting enough heat (the rooms never got warmer than 63 degrees after being set to 70 all along on cold days). I have a Buderus G215/4 with a Riello F5.
He came in and changed the nozzle from a 120 60w to a 125 80WB. Said it should help.
Questions:
1. He just pulled one out and popped the other in. Should he have measured something afterwards, like pressure, angle, smoke?
2. Will the new nozzle make a difference? Is there a more powerful one that would be better?
3. He also mentioned cranking up the temp to 200 (it was set to 180), so I did that. What effect does this have? Can it go higher for better heating? (Energy efficiency is nice, but less important than a warm cozy house).

Thanks!!!
