Re: ways to boost cool side.
use a 40 watt red bulb, or a heater to bump the ambient room temp up
Re: ways to boost cool side.
bottom of tank heater? im thinking about getting some flexwatt.
Re: ways to boost cool side.
Either a UTH on the cool side (on a thermostat - especially if you get flexwatt which will heat over 140 degrees if not on a thermostat) or a space heater in your room.
Re: ways to boost cool side.
I was going to say, space heater. A radiator-shaped oil-filled electric one works great. We use one in our bedroom (no snakes, but no heating vent either) at night and it fits the bill.
Re: ways to boost cool side.
I'll second the electric oil filled radiator. I have one in the snake room I built i the garage and it works great. If my wife would let me I would probably get a couple more for the house and shut off the central heat. lol.
Re: ways to boost cool side.
If you do go with a UTH/Flexwatt for the cool side make sure its hooked up to a separate themo than the warm side UTH... I, like others, piked up a 50$ oil based electric heater from walmart and it does the trick.
