No hot showers or hot tubs was part of the NAUI curriculum that I was originally certified under. I put that in its' proper place when after my first certification dive with air temp of +27F and water temp of ~+40 we all jumped into a waiting tank that had been filled with hot water.
There was a story, supposedly true, that there were several Navy divers using hot water suits who got bent when working on a wrecked airliner off the East Coast. But they were diving deep, long duration and were being warmed in situ. Don't think there are any Amateur Divers(Rec, Tec, or otherwise) operating under such adverse conditions.
