Scalding Temperatures and Times The length of time that one is exposed to hot water, as well as your skin's thickness determines how quickly you reach the point of being scalded. A safe bath water temperature is 100 degrees Fahrenheit. Children and the elderly can experience scalding at temperatures higher than 120 degrees Fahrenheit. See the attached Honeywell link for a chart of scald times determined by skin thickness and length of time exposed to different hot water temperatures.
