How hot of water can it be washed in? My water is 130°, & that is needed to kill dust mites.

I can't give you a good answer to that since I've already thrown away the packaging. It is being used on a spare bed and hasn't been washed yet. Having said that, I always wash my whites in hot water and mine is hot enough to cause pain, so I assume it's over 130 degrees. When it's time to wash this, I won't hesitate to throw it in with the rest of the whites. I have been very favorably impressed with everything about this product, even including the packaging and the price, so I at least feel confident that it will stand up to my hot water. Hope I'm right. Good luck.

Per the attached tag, "can be washed in cold or warm water...low tumble dry less than 125F". It also reports that is can be sterilized at 250F. All in all the information is a little confusing, I've washed ours in "hot" water on our washer 2-3 times since we've bought the item and it still looks and performs like new.

I have washed it in hot water (I'm not sure what temperature that is) but I agree with the other comments, I would not recommend high heat drying.

The hot water is not a problem. A rough tumble and drying in a dryer is where the liner can be damaged. Use delicate cycle and hot/ hot and you should be fine. Then dry on low or no heat.

I am sorry I can't answer that question, we have never had dust mites in our bed.

I use it for hot water on a shower. I have not put a thermostat to it, but if you turn the temp all the way up it is scalding hot so I would suspect that it gets hotter than 140.

Everyone in my family is allergic to dust mites. Normally this means you are allergic to dust mite feces. I wash all bed linens in this additive and we all sleep well. The package advertises that it REMOVES THE DUST ALLERGENS CONSISTING OF DUST MITES, HOUSEHOLD PET DANDER, MOLD, MILDEW, and POLLEN in any water temperature water. I wash in warm water and am satisfied with the results. My prior product of choice was De-Mite.

that's a tricky question. You should set it at a temp you are comfortable with. If you have kids, they say not high enough that pure hot water coming from your tap can scald. But if you like crazy hot showers...it's all you. As far as knowing what the temp is...you really just have to set it, let the heater come up to temp and then check the water coming out of the faucet. Mine are set to about 130F, but based on my piping configuration (slab foundation) I only get about 115-120 at the faucet which works for me and my family. Your top and bottom thermostat should be set to the same temp. Again, its your call for whatever you are comfortable with. that's a tricky question.

The temp is 212 degrees in the tank. To sanitize, you need to apply steam for 15 seconds. Water at 74 degrees will sanitize, and to be steam water has to be at least 100 degrees. The hotter the water the more quickly it sanitizes. If you hold a steam mop on something for too long it could damage it.

I already have hot and cold water and it can be mixed. I don't think the panel itself can warm it up.

Just tested it for you. It heated cold water (with nothing else in it) to 165 degrees. Love my Cocomotion!

I don't know if you can wash then in hot water. I wash everything in cold water. You will have to ask the company directly.

The published specifications state: Temperature: 40-100 °F. so not suitable for hot spring, etc. If the hot water is derived from water at 40-100 F, Place the filter in the section carrying the 'cold' water.

Hi Hi Karen, I don't live in a hard water area so I just use tap water, the mop heats very hot, no problem using tap. You can always add a little white vinegar to the water container just as you would to clean a coffee maker. I really like this mop, the price is good and it does a great job!

No, it is not designed for hot water. The filter will fail and may cause damage to your washer.

Our house gets pretty darn hot . We are in the desert. I would change the water daily and give it a try . It has to he better than leaving it out.

Water doesn't get hot, at least not on mine. I've only used it a couple of times so far. Sorry can't be of more help.Carol

The water that comes out is as hot as the tap water you put in the reservoir. I just add straight hot tap water, so apx. 120 degrees, or hotter depending on your hot water tank settings.

The upper and lower thermostats should be set at the same temperature. If you have anyone disabled, small children, or elderly, it isn't recommended that you set the temperature past 120. If you are running out of hot water, or the water has a bad odor, turning the temperature up may help. As a plumber, I recommend setting the tank to 120 and see if you have sufficient hot water. If you do, leave it alone; lower settings are beneficial for numerous reasons. 140 degrees will kill all bacteria that may be in the water, but at an increased risk of scalding.

"Hot" is too general of a term.....this pvc piece is suitable for average temperatures . Hot water from the tap is absolutely fine....but boiling waters would be too far and extreme for this fitting to withstand over time. ......

That's incorrect. I take hot showers all the time. The filter on your kitchen faucet, ie PUR, is not for hot water. The shower filter is made for showers and there for all temperatures.
