About to switch heat source.... Please help define temp.

We are about to switch to a FlexWatt system and have one question. Is it the substrate or the air temp that should be at 88 degrees?

Still learning,

My leos seem to spend about 90 percent of thier time in their hide boxes. I use paper towel for substrate and place their moist hide boxes directly over the heat soure. So far, so good. Gadzooks

Ambient temp on the hot side should be a good 85 with the floor being 88-90...
