I have wondered about this often actually. There is a type of Legionella that can cause skin lesions as well. How many of us have those new rain head shower heads? I have noticed that they drip for ever after you turn off the shower and started to wonder how much stagnant water is left behind. As far as water temperature goes I have had an on going battle with my husband about this. The utility companies tell us to turn it down but is it wise to listen. The natural gas prices in California have gotten extremely high. Thinking after reading phase 1 report time to replace the water heater with a on demand one. I started to wash my hair with distilled water and did see improvement but gave in and wanted a hot shower, big mistake!
