    Heating a tub question

    Hello,
    I have asked many times about heating with heat tape.
    I have attached a pic I drew to better explain, but pic is so bad, understand me I am bad at art haha.
    So like the picture shows, I am building one tub rack with melamine wood and putting tub in those like rack system. I decided to do it to keep heat better and secure the lid. Even though sides and top are all blocked, I am going to have lid on the tub. I was originally going to put 12 inch heat tape under the tub to create a hot spot. My room is around 73~75 so I was thinking that heat tape could possibly create some heat inside the tub since tub is covered with melamine woods except open side. If it doesn't work out, I am planning to put a 4 inch heat tape on the back cool side to emit some heat to the tub, not to the hot spot. Would this work ? or should I just put another tape on the cool side instead of back cool side?\
