60 F may be too cold and hypothermia could still be a concern for extended washing. However, 100F is just above body temp, it should be p retty good for an eyewash.

of "tepid"
I know we=E2=80=99ve beaten this one to death already but I wasn =E2=80=99t paying attention and now I need the collective brain. I fo und ANSI says that "tepid=" is between 60 and 100F. Bu t I seem to recall other advice that suggests this is too wide of a range =E2=80=93 60F is uncomfortably cold and 100F is far too hot for an eyewash.
What do you g uys think?
