Your probe should be secured on the outside of the enclosure and between the heat mat and the glass.
Purchase a temp gun to monitor the hot spot temp on the inside of the tub. With glass, there's a thick barrier between the mat and the inside of the enclosure, so you may need to set your thermostat higher than 90 to actually reach an appropriate temp inside.
I got an UTH and a tstat recently
I set it to be 82 at night and 90 during the day
But it doesn't get past 80 during the day..
The probe is inside, under the substrate but next to the wall of the tank

Shall I set my thermostat higher then?
But shouldn't the temperature increase till it reaches my settings, even if the probe inside?
