Its fine to use. But it will dry out your humidity. I suggest looking into radiant heat panels.

Like Nikki said, you can, but it does dry out the air much more than using alternate methods. Just something to consider.

I guess to describe them would be like the coils in an oven but in panel form? Anyway, the links provided are to the top 2 recommended sites which sell them.

Heat panels are like a heated blanket for your bed.
