How should I heat the floor of my future snake room

[mumps]

For some, getting an 8 foot Sentec is fine for housing 16 foot, 200 lb. snakes.

For others, making a space that their snake will actually LIKE is what they want to provide. I use large enclosures, and I have a friend who used a whole room before. The room was awesome, and housed a retic and a burm.

Obviously, the expense and work involved is not as important to the OP as providing the best environment possible. If he wanted a tiny box for his snake, he would have gotten one.

Price seemed to be an issue cause the op mentioned this. I know how expensive heated floors are. I am a contractor and have done heated floors in custom bathrooms and pool houses. It is very expensive to do. Now i think a room would be killer. But to do it the right way to be able to keep the husbandry in check it would be very expensive. I did a job last fall for a guy who wanted a heated floor system in his basement. We ended up doing a hot water system that has a raised floor system with pipes under the floor that circulated hot water. It is very effective and very easy to do. But very expensive. It all runs off its own hot water heater and taco circulation pumps.
