Most of what you need to know can be found here;

I'm sorry, you must have not been paying attention or just missed the OPs
comments on how he and his wife love temperatures that would ruin a lobster.
You missed the parts where people have mentioned that it may be unsafe
medically, but were promptly corrected, chastised and castigated.

This OP has his mind to make the water as hot as he/she/it wants it, and
doesn't want facts.

All they want is a way to bypass the normal circuitry; safety guidelines,
and common sense be damned.

Not to worry, though. You'll be reading about them soon in the paper.

Lots of things carry potential risk, sometimes even life-threatening
risks. When the g'mint makes laws to protect me from myself, they've
gone too far. People dig holes in the ice to go swimming in the dead of
winter. You gonna outlaw that, too? I don't blame the OP for wanting
hotter water and not giving a god damn about someone else's concept of
safety.

My jacuzzi is about thirty years old, I'd guess -- it's a Hawkeye, for
those that might remember. I like my water around 102 or so, that way I
can stay in it as long as I like without getting uncomfortably hot. I
never tested the max, but I'm sure it would climb way the hell up there
if I wanted it to.

Now I'm gonna go stick a knife in the toaster, eat some pork that's pink
in the middle, ride my bike without a helmet, and break another ground
plug off a power tool so it will fit in the outlet without an adaptor.
Why? Because I've evaluated the risk vs. reward, and find the ratio
acceptable to me.


Just don't expect the police or 911 to rescue you, or the hospital
emergency room to fix you up, or Social Security to give you disability
payments, and I might be ok with your kooky risk/reward evaluation.
