The problem is that, when the temp. of the air in the warmest corner gets 29-30'C the floor gets so heated, that when I touch it with my finger I get burned.

How can I make the surrounding temp.high, without making the floor burn?

I'm using a thermocable for heating. It is folded in raws and atouched to an wooden plank, on top of which i'm putting the cage. The cage is made out of plastic. (Though the glass is a much better heat conducter than a plastic)

Thank you for support.
