Description
Struggling to keep a stable warm zone in a glass vivarium or terrarium? This 14W reptile heating mat provides a gentle, even heat source suitable for small reptiles such as snakes, geckos, bearded dragons, tortoises and turtles. The PVC surface wipes clean and helps create a reliable warm area that many reptiles use for activity and rest. Designed for glass tanks rather than plastic enclosures to avoid heat damage.
Install the mat on the underside or on the side of a glass enclosure to form a temperature gradient; bottom mounting works well for ground-dwelling species, while side mounting can give lateral warmth for climbers. The surface is splash-resistant but must not be submerged. Do not place animals directly on the pad to prevent burns, keep it away from flammable materials and stop use if the mat is punctured or severely deformed.
Key Features
- Consistent 14W heat that helps maintain a stable warm area in a controlled enclosure

- Can be fitted to the bottom or side of glass tanks – avoid use with plastic terrariums as continuous heating may deform them
