LOL!!! You don't need to heat the air that is being breathed.. just the animal in the enclosure. UTH heaters work much better for kingsnakes. They heat themselves when needed, cool down when needed. Thermoregulation. Overhead heaters can cause burns if the animal gets too close, are more expensive to purchase and more expensive to operate. Regardless of heat source, a thermostat or rheostat should be employed. Basements work great for snakerooms, and UTH heating sources work excellently in such.
