The laundry I go to occasionally
To wash big rugs and the like, charges .25 to .50 more per load for hot washes. In reality their warm wash is maybe body temp, maybe a little cooler. Hot wash is more what I would call a warm.
Combined with a quick wash cycle, you can pay another .25 for a heavy wash. The results were minimal at best. | ||

Went to laundromat yesterday only because had large coverlets that simply couldn't be done in any washers at home.
Started going off laundromats long before covid-19 hit, and now am even more squeamish, but what else could one do? Am here to tell you our local has SQ front loaders, and no; you will never get a "hot" wash. First cycle is a quick pre-wash in cold water. Then comes tap hot water which even if 140F (which I doubt) would be quickly cooled by both interior surfaces of washer and that laundry pre-washed in cold water. | ||

 There's a lot of heat loss without an onboard heater. My AquaSmart ATC is 50°C/122°F for WARM input. Warm+ is 56°C/133°F and Hot is 62°C/144°F. Most cycles run the target temp only for the Eco Active fill (some also for the HE top-off), tap cold for deep fill top-off if selected or coded into the cycle. *However*, a few deep fill cycles such as Sheets (which can also do Warm+ and Hot) and Bulky run the target temp for the entire fill. I've been using Bulky-Blanket for bedding, which is hard-coded for Warm. The resultant temp is nicely warm, surely not 122°F. | ||
