Question: What tempature is considered to hot in a hot tub!? what about for a child!?
Answers:
I think anything over 104 is too hot (Fahrenheit)!. For a child, although you don't specify the age anything above 92-95 I would think!.

My 9 year old will sit in it up to about 102!.!.!.but she likes around 95 better!.

Limit the time for sure and make sure it's adequately treated for bacteria as kids are very susceptible to bladder infections, etc!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

What a load of highly qualified Crap!.!
Put your elbow in and if it's to hot for your elbow, Then it's too hot for your child!.
I could tell you where to stick your thermometer, But i am sure you already guessed,!
C'mon get real, The elbow is a tried and tested method, for hundreds of years!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Hot tubs usually run 105 F tops!. At that temperature you get hot quickly don't you!? So for a young child that doesn't regulate body temp as an adult I would think 100 F and even then watch them!. You wouldn't want to cause them harm!. Happy trails!.!.!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I agree with the others!. Don't want it over 95 for a child!. and even at 95 it can be too hot!. I'd suggest the child to drink lots of water while playing around in the hot tub!. The heat can dehydrate them!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
