Nah, turn it up.

You can’t clean windows properly with water temperature any less than 95c…

Turn it all the way up to 100° Daz, it might even get the swirls out of your Black Golf at that temperature….. ;D

Yeah but once that hot water was in his tank on a very cold day he didn’t have the option to turn it off even if he’d had taken the tanks North Face jacket off of it.
