It is the AIR that is at 110C - chucking water on the stones actually cools the room for a while, but it feels hotter due to increased humidity as in Turkish baths.



Ah right, I misread the earlier post and assumes bath to refer to a tub
of water. Surely most people refer to it just as "a sauna" or maybe
sauna room?


Well, a Turkish bath is the same as a sauna, but with 30% humidity instead of 0%.

I would assume a Turkish bath/steam room to have a humidity approaching
100%, in fact it's more than an assumption, a quick google search
verifies that.
