Can this tub handle really hot water? Trying to use it for laundry.

It probably could though i have not used it for that purpose. I bought it to be a turtle pond. It is very good heavy black plastic that i think could withstand water that gets hot enough for laundry. If this one cannot i would doubt any plastic could.

I use it to water livestock but based on the construction, I don't think there would be any problems with hot water.

This tub is so well made and durable I don't think hot water used in doing laundry would pose any problem. I do not use it for hot water though. Mine is used outdoors to hold composed manure in the garden. No signs of breakdown even after many night temps below zero degrees.

Yes I think that will work fine. You can use it just to generate hot water. Hope this helps!

Absolutely not!!! The unit is a great hot water heater, but this size unit is best for a smaller house and less bathrooms. They do make larger units that will satify your hot water demands. I reccommend that you go their website and look at the tables to properly size what you need.

It does not say that it will on the box. With the carrier being made of a plastic material, I'm not sure that it would hold hot water.

I got this for my sister and she says she adds hot water to it. It says its dishwasher safe so I assume it will handle hot temps.

I think so. We have had some pretty serious issues and it has worked great. Especially if you could run it from a utility sink or something, where you could run hot water.

I just called the company, the hose is not hot water safe! Although you can use it for hot water and it may not look like it is breaking down, the company does not guarantee that the water is potable, or that the inside of the hose will not release chemicals into the water. They recommend not exceeding 100ºF.

Well not for tons of wet laundry Could work, should work, not what it is designed for. It is a shower rod not a clothesline.

I wouldn't. I have a front loader and I put the Unstopables right in the tub before I add the clothes. Its worked well for me that way.

this unit gets very hot but it will kick off a 30 amp breaker if you leave it running for more than 10 minutes.it is intended hand washing and fast hot water in short terms. great for a bar or small sink, bathroom sink.i think you need a 6 gallon water heater for a tub. this unit does heat the water by 40 % of what the ambient water is.

I don't think it could with the carpet and padding still there. But if you lift those you should be able to see you hot water line. Is it radiant heat?

It would probably be better if you used a small electrical water heater. In order for this to heat the water, water must be flowing through the unit. It works great for our hot tub, but the pump must be running.

Wet laundry is heavy. I would not recommend it for that. I don't think it would hold much weight.

I would hate to give wrong advice, it may be ok with the hot tub, the windows can be opened. It does get pretty toasty in there though.

It can but I believe the warm water sprays more steam . It's a great littleSteamer though :-)

Yes, you can however we returned ours after the hot water failed within a week.

I haven't tried all hot water but do hook it to the garage sink and use hot/cold mix to bathe the dog with no problem.
