Spas and Kids: Not So Hot

According CPSC, the water temperature in a spa should never go above 104 degrees. And children under the age of 5 should not be allowed in hot tubs because of the many safety risks associated with spas.
Other risks include external ear infections that can be caused by microorganisms that grow in hot temperatures. If you allow your child to go into a hot tub, make it brief. To ensure that your child stays safe around spas, always keep a lid on it ... literally. Keep a safety lock on the spa so that kids cannot get in without adult supervision. Know where the emergency cut-off switch is in case you have to turn off the spa abruptly. Always keep an eye on the water temperature. Have your spa looked at for any safety issues.
