Exo Terra Heat Wave Desert Medium Heat Pad - Mat

Exo Terra Heat Wave Desert Medium Heat Pad / Mat

The Desert substrate heater simulates heated sand beds by the sun in deserts. The amount of hours a day and the strength of the sun in these regions can generate extreme hot surfaces. The substrate is dry and does not increase the air humidity as seen in rain-forests or tropical areas.

The power of the Heat Wave Desert substrate heater is designed to safely create these conditions in the terrarium.

Reptiles and amphibians are cold-blooded and in their natural habitat they often use surfaces heated by the sun to warm up. The Exo Terra Heat Mat is a terrarium substrate heater that simulates these surfaces heated by the sun.

Exo Terra’s Heat Mats are an ideal 24-hour primary or secondary heat source for tropical or temperate reptile and amphibian species and essential as a nighttime heat source for many desert species. The Exo Terra Heat Mat permanently adheres to the terrarium, forming a solid bond for optimal heat transfer. Best to be used with a pulse proportional or dimming thermostat.
