The proper heating of the terrarium significantly increases the metabolism of reptiles and activates reproductive behavior. Additionally, it improves appetite and simulates the natural warming of the substrate. An added benefit of using a heating mat is its extremely low energy consumption.

Repti-Zoo's top mats feature special legs that allow the creation of the necessary space between the mat and the bottom of the terrarium. This solution effectively improves the mat's functionality and the distribution of heat, while also ensuring longevity and preventing overheating.

The legs are designed to operate at high temperatures and have a permanent glue that allows them to be easily attached to the bottom of the terrarium.
