I guess it's possible. I have read reports that heat works for killing

If the house has a sprinkler system I think most of them are set to go off
at 135 degrees. So getting the house up to 130 degrees would seem risky if
there is a sprinkler system in place.

How many houses have sprinkler systems. WIH, would you set the things to
135F?

Also, there is a health inspector "rule of thumb" trick for testing hot
water coming out of a faucet. It is to put your fingers under the faucet
and turn on the hot water. When the temperature of the water gets hot to
the point where you have to pull your fingers out due to the burning, the
temp of the water is about 110 degrees. So, if surfaces in the super heated
house are above 110 degrees -- especially metal surfaces that conduct heat
easily -- it would be pretty easy to get burned by touching them.

Utter nonsense. Irrelevant, but nonsense nonetheless.
