where i live it’s a part of building code that hot water has to be hot enough that legionella doesn’t survive in it. depending on the place it might be different and whether building is up to code is a separate thing entirely
If you have legionella in your hot water, the issue isn’t going to come from drinking it, but inhaling it when you shower. As long as you don’t have a dead leg in your water system or a circuit that stagnates for long periods of time, legionella is pretty much a non-issue in the vast majority of homes, even older homes.
Legionella specifically. If you’re going to drink hot from the tap, go all the way to boiling first
