I say "I believe" because I've never had to deal with this and am uncertain of the details but I have talked to a captain that claimed to have had this issue.

Edit: Yep, look up LOA 11-02 paragraph 3. An I recognize the LOA just says 'water', not 'hot water' but I think it's been established in either practice or through grievance that hot water is necessary. Contact union rep if you have issues.
