If the OP is the one with the snake and can physically see that the UTH is contributing to ambient temps then how can you disagree with that?
Very true that in tanks the UTH is not usually enough but every situation is different and if this setup is working for the OP then there is no reason to question it.
As for the original question I keep my BP's at 95 hot spot (granted this is heat tape temperature so temps on inside the tub are a few degrees less). If it's easy to just change the temp to a couple degrees less then that would be ideal (which it sounds like you already did).
