Can I use the thermometer as a water thermometer in the bathtub or sink?

I would say "no" that it is not meant to be immersed in water. I suggest for that, you look for a "pool" type thermometer instead. I hope this helps.

I would say NO, this thermometer does not appear to be waterproof. They do sell water proof thermometers.

no you must set the desired temperature on the control unit under the sink for the hands free. Using the handle bypasses the hands free and you can change the water temperature like a regular faucet.

I had intended this to be used in a large shower at home. Unfortunately I returned the item because the finish was not what I wanted. I don't think you can use it in a bathtub because the surface is not flat. But I am not sure.

It doesn't fit on our spout so we just hold the thermometer piece under the stream of water. It's our interim solution until our little guy is big enough for the tub.

If it's a smaller kettle yes but if it's a larger kettle then probably not I would suggest maybe one of those laser temperature checkers that can be pointed directly at the kettle to see if the water is the right temperature

I use mine with the sink, and it will work with a shower, however not with the bathtub unless you have something to bridge the tub faucet with the rapid bath.

No, I think no. It says.... Checks the bath Water temperature every second and display it in Fahrenheit.

Yes, it works great for it too. I actually use this to check the temperature of my aquariums. It's as accurate as the glass floating thermometers that I used to use. I can get a good reading from just pointing it at the front of the aquarium or at the open top.I have also looked at shower temperatures with spraying water. It works very well and gets a steady reading from about two feet away. I now know my prefered shower temperature is exactly 95 degrees...

That's the only thing I've used it for! I dip it a few inches into the water, hold it there for about 30 seconds, and the gauge will read accurate temp.

Yes, but I do not recommend this thermometer. It was never accurate for me and is now a toy my child plays with. Pay a bit more for a higher quality one. This one is a waste of money.

Yes, as long as the glass thermometer doesn't get bashed by something else in the washer.

You need not to immerse the probes in water, rather slightly wet a paper towel and clean the probe. I ran my probe under the water causing the probe not to register in the thermometer. We ordered additional probes, all works well now.

Well, my husband has been using it to test the water in our fish tank and it has been very accurate, so I don't see why not. I just wouldn't leave it to sit in the boiling water since it's an instant read thermometer instead. If you are looking to make candy/ caramelize sugar and you need to constantly gauge the temperature I would suggest getting a candy thermometer that hooks to the side of the pot and stays there.

Hi DK, we have never tested on hot tub temperature measurement if we understand your questions correctly. Jacuzzi thermometer is a different type of thermometer. BlizeTec thermometer is most commonly used for food prep, cooking & bbq activities.

You can poke a thermometer through the slates or in the small gap between the door and the body of the unit. The temp is not too stable, it hovers around the set temp, but is fine for most dehydrating needs.

I've heard of people calibrating it with boiling water, so it may work for what you want. I'd be careful to not get the plug end of the thermocouple or the thermometer wet though.

You could, But I would not, it does not have enough flow of water to wash dishes. Its is fine for Bathroom sink use. Just flat out not enough water moving thru it for washing dishes, etc.
