Detailed explanation-1: -Rule of thumb is safe bathing and showering temperature is 100 degrees Fahrenheit. That means your heater hot water temperature should be set at or below 120 degrees Fahrenheit.
Detailed explanation-2: -Hot tub water temperatures should never exceed 104 degrees Fahrenheit. A temperature of 100 degrees is considered safe for a healthy adult.
Detailed explanation-3: -Gauge the water temperature. If you leave your elbow in the water or 5–10 seconds, you’ll be able to form a rough idea of the water’s temperature. If the water feels slightly warm, but not hot, it’s around 100 °F (38 °C).
Detailed explanation-4: -There is no absolute rule for how hot a shower should be, but most dermatologists recommend keeping the temperature at an average of 98°F (37°C) to 101°F (38.3°C) or no more than 105 °F (41°C).
Detailed explanation-5: -When the vapour pressure reaches an equivalent value to the surrounding air pressure, the liquid will boil. At sea level, vapour pressure is equal to the atmospheric pressure at 100 ˚C, and so this is the temperature at which water boils.
