You would be surprised what a difference it is from 8" to 10" and it's worth every bit of $50 more. As far as the heating yes you can go with a RHP and a UTH incase the Temp is 65-68 during winter.. Otherwise the RHP is fine alone for 68+ homes/Rooms.

    As far as the Hot side temps now I know its probably been mentioned 50 times but make sure to check the Glass above the UTH not the substrate. All my heating elementa match what the Tstat & thermistate says after 24 hrs of things absorbing the heat. Usually about 1° off.
    Example.. My Tstat says 91... The hot side probe thermometer says 90.7... If I then check with a Lazer it says 89.3..88.7 and 90.1 in three different places. This is all after leaving the doors closed etc for 12hrs as everytime i clean it/open it a several times during winter it takes hrs to regulate again.
    Thank you for all the info! I will definitely be getting a T10. I’ll will check where the UTH is and see against the thermostat. I got a 150watt CHE and it’s keep the temp at 78 now with no problem.
