Description

Exo Terra Ceramic Heater – 100 Watt

The Exo Terra Ceramic Heater is a type of heat source designed specifically for reptiles and other terrarium-dwelling animals. It functions as a radiant heat emitter, mimicking the natural heat of the sun and creating a uniform heat pattern within the terrarium. The heat produced by this ceramic heater is in the form of long wave infrared radiation, which effectively warms reptiles while also raising the overall ambient temperature in the enclosure.

One of the notable benefits of using infrared heat is its ability to penetrate through the scales and skin tissue of reptiles. This can have positive effects on their health and healing processes. By widening the blood vessels and increasing blood circulation, the infrared heat from the ceramic heater can promote better overall well-being for reptiles.

It’s important to note that the Exo Terra Ceramic Heater should only be used in conjunction with the specially designed Exo Terra Wire Light. This light fixture is likely engineered to provide proper support and safety for the ceramic heater, ensuring that it functions correctly and doesn’t pose any risks to the animals or the enclosure.

Key features of the Exo Terra Ceramic Heater include its innovative design, boasting a high heat efficiency of 99%. This means that a significant portion of the energy consumed by the heater is converted into useful heat for the terrarium, making it an energy-efficient option. Additionally, the emitter is designed to emit natural heat, which can contribute to creating a more realistic and comfortable environment for reptiles that depend on external heat sources for their well-being.

Keep in mind that specific guidelines and instructions from the manufacturer should always be followed when installing and using any heating equipment in a terrarium to ensure the safety and well-being of the animals.
