Heat Mat

Post by Hermit lover 360 » Fri Mar 12, 2021 1:43 pm

I just got a my first ultratherm heat mat, but I don’t know what to use to attach it to the tank any suggestions? If anyone can help it would be great!

Hi!

I used duct tape all around the edges to secure the mat to the tank. If you insulate it, you can cover cardboard in aluminum foil, shiny side out, and then attach that to the back of the mat with duct tape. My house doesn't get that cold, so I skipped the cardboard and just duct taped aluminum foil over the mat.
