Most adults will suffer third-degree burns if
exposed to 150 degree water for two seconds.
Burns will also occur with a six-second
exposure to 140 degree water or with a thirty
second exposure to 130 degree water. Even if
the temperature is 120 degrees, a five minute
exposure could result in third-degree burns.
To be honest three degrees burn doesn’t sound bad. I’m looking at my protractor and as long as you aren’t far away from the tub three degrees shouldn’t burn that much
Yeah but you are talking about hot tubs and they are talking about hot tubes so maybe the rules are different like the tube is really hot but is a poor thermal conductor. Or they misspelled tub and they really like burning themselves… lots of options for interpretation here.
75°C is definitely ok for a hot tube for a short session.
Forget 75°, just 65°C (150°F) will give you third degree burns in 2 seconds:
(°F)
(Third °F burns)

Most adults? What happens to the others?
They will instantly explode into pure energy
I guess I’m long dead, lol.
Just brain dead 😅
Sure but you can only do it once!
Seriously, even 75C water coming out of the tap would be dangerous and negligent.
It’s usually 96 if you have a boiler. No issues.
Temperatures beyond 50°C are an acute risk. 75°C can cause lasting damages.

Ever been to sauna? Especially the Russian one? There’s no risk if you don’t have heart issues.
I’m regularly going to a Finnish sauna with >80°C, but air with 100% humidity is not the same as immersing yourself in scalding hot water.
The Finnish sauna is dry. Russian and Turkish are wet with high humidity.
But only if you have purple eyes
I spilled a half cup of 175F water on my hand and got blisters. You absolutely cannot bathe in it.
Whoosh
