In a wooden cage, the heat source should be placed on the bottom of the inside of the cage, with a second flooring over it, such as vinyl or tile.
My cages are all handmade, and the BP cages have vinyl flooring over the UTHs on the wood with vent holes drilled under the UTHs for air circulation. The vinyl is only attached at the edges via the hot glue I use as seam sealer.
