Historically, all my previous house cylinders/boilers were set for DHW at 60C (both with and without the two kids) and thus far we are all still alive and well, So I think I will stick at the 60C.
My understanding was that legionella is more likely to survive (if a correct term) at 55C and below rather than occur at 60C. So I presume if DHW is heated and re-heated to 60C thrice daily (or more), this should be safe.
No doubt a contentious subject but open to further advice from all re this.
