Being from Florida I am not tolerate of cold at all. If you live in a cold water region you might be more accustomed to the chill. But for me these pants work fine until temps drop to 65-68 degrees. I also like the coverage from wind and stinging things. Hope this helps.

We have heated ours up to 104 degrees. Once the air bubbles are started, the temperature slowly decreases, but it will stay hot long enough for a normal recommended time period for a hot tub. It also is comfortable for the price.

I have never taken the temperature of the water but the heater is strong enough to keep the water from freezing in all weather we have experienced in Minnesota over the past two seasons, last year being much colder. If I had to guess I would have to say somewhere in the upper 30's.

I highly recommend warming the water first. Using cold water can be very uncomfortable.

It can go to 140. The temperature rise is the key. Find out what your water supply temperature is on the coldest day and then add manufacturer specs for rise. That will give you how hot your water will be.

I thought temp to be approx. 220 degrees. I remember it being the highest temp of similar machines at the time I purchased. It is very light, maybe 2 pounds when full of water.

Yes, that works perfect. I used super cold water as the tca was stinging my skin and it felt good to cool it.

No it won't keep you warm in cold water the fabric isn't that thick. It's better for sun protection.

I do not know the max temperature, but some reviews said it shut down on them on hot days if it was in direct sunlight. When they covere it with a towel, it worked okay. I also read it is not waterprrof, and shuts down below freezing.

Cold is not bad. You will get use to it. To adjust the temp you have to put in Y adapter with individual valves on hot and cold side and you would leave them set at the temp you like. or you could get hardware for a shower and place it behind the sink. To keep it simple get use to the cold water.

These have an internal thermostat which turns the heater on when the temp drops to near freezing, once it warms up enough the thermostat shuts the heater off. This should have no problem keeping 20 gallons from freezing and my water in freezing temps doesn't get above 40-50 degrees. The internal thermostat keeps from heating the water too much.

It will all depend on how sedentary you are. I wear these when I drift fish for steelhead in a boat for 10 hour+ days. The temps are usually 35F and below. I also wear a polartec beanie, balaclava, 3 other mid-layers, 3 pairs of smartwool socks and Baffin boots. If you will be actively moving about, this is not for you.

Same here, ice water, spot on at 32 degrees. Boiling water 212. I think this is a very accurate thermometer. 160 is a great temp for a medium steak, which is how my wife likes them. I have used this thermometer for that purpose and it worked perfectly.

The water is very cold. Works very well after 6 intensive months of use. We love it.

I like cold and slow - usually do room temp water and overnight in the fridge - for best structure and flavor (IMNSHO). Much faster response with 105 degrees F water. Say an hour or three on the counter. YMMV.

It's controlled by a thermal switch normally open set at around 35 to 36 degrees, then turns off around 43 degrees. Is set to keep the water from freezing.I've taken it apart and had to replace the thermal switch on a few of them, they tend to go bad when they get wet. Stv
