Reptile Systems Heating Strip

The Reptile Systems Heating Strip is a low-profile under-enclosure heat source designed for vivariums and terrariums where reliable, evenly distributed warmth is essential. Available in a range of sizes to suit enclosures of different scales, it keeps all electrical components outside the enclosure for a clean, safe setup.

Controlled Heat Distribution

The heating ink is distributed across wide heating bands, which ensures consistent temperatures across the mat surface. The design also allows for a gradual temperature decrease towards the edges, reducing the thermal stress on glass-bottomed enclosures and lowering the risk of cracking.

Creating a Thermal Gradient

Because the strip installs beneath or to the side of the enclosure rather than inside it, reptile keepers can establish a natural warm zone while leaving a cooler area within the enclosure. This is important for thermoregulation, allowing animals to move between zones as their needs dictate.

Installation and Safety

• Ultra-flat and thin profile sits discreetly under the tank
• No electrical wires run inside the heating surface itself
• All electrical components remain outside the enclosure
• Simple installation — instructions provided on the side panel

Choosing the Right Size

The Heating Strip is available in multiple sizes with corresponding wattages, making it straightforward to match to your enclosure footprint. Select the appropriate variant from the options above to suit your specific setup.

Whether you keep tropical or arid species, the Reptile Systems Heating Strip gives keepers a dependable, unobtrusive heating solution that works with the enclosure rather than inside it — keeping both the animal and the glass safe.
