Find a productProduct description
This small heating mat is intended for keepers who need supplementary heat for a compact reptile enclosure. Its adhesive back allows it to be fixed to the floor or a wall of the terrarium, so the heat source can be placed where the animal needs it.
Why it matters
- According to the manufacturer, 86% of the heat generated is emitted vertically into the enclosure, rather than downward into the substrate.
- The self-adhesive layer lets you mount the mat on the bottom or the side of the terrarium, without additional fixings. The manufacturer states the adhesive contains no irritating substances.
- Spacer feet are included. They lift the mat off the base of the terrarium, which the manufacturer says improves heat distribution and reduces the risk of localised overheating.
- The mat is rated IPX4, so it tolerates splashing, spills and high humidity.
