you will have to wait for half an hour to an hour for a half-full pail of the hot spring water to cool down a bit before you can soak your feet for self-made foot bath therapy (足浴).you should soak your feet in the pail up till the tibia/ shinbone area and the skin is a little warm pink.

well, other than directly bathing/ soaking in natural hot springs on the spot worldwide, the same piping method can be said for commercial hot springs such as in Japan/ Korea/ Taiwan where hot springs are piped to divert/ channel the water to commercial spas/ bath houses... -

since the spring water is hard water, as compared to tap water which is soft water, the spring water will naturally cools down at a slower pace than tap water even if both starts at 70°C.
