Heating, water pipes and drains, sentence 11
Stored hot water is kept at about 60 degrees to stop germs growing in the tank; run the cold first in a bath and test it with your elbow, because hot water can scald (burn the skin); the hot tap runs cold at first because the cooled water already sitting in the pipe has to come out before the hot arrives.
Who acts: hot water, hot tap, cooled water, hot · What happens: store, keep, stop, grow, run, test · To what, where: Stored hot water, 60 degrees, germs, tank, cold, bath
