I'm not sure if that is the same thing as melamine and it probably won't conduct heat so you may have to put the UTH on top of it and cover it with something that will conduct heat.

As for raising ambient temps I can't really help with that. I don't pay for heat so I suffer all year round and keep my apartment at least 75.
