I also considered this but a UTH is designed to provide belly heat. I doubt you will find a UTH big enough to raise the ambient temps of a glass tank that size. Most heating devices on the market are designed to provide a warm spot for basking. Raising the overall temps in a large glass tank, placed in a cold room, will not be easy. Heating the entire room is the only way I know it could be done.
