I have a leaky old house too. I also like to have it cold at night so it's often down into the 50s inside overnight during the winter. I just have a heat projector bulb in the tank hooked to a thermostat that turns it on when the temps in the tank drop below 65, bringing them back up between 70-73. That seems to work well. I have a glass tank so it doesn't provide much insulation. The wooden tanks with the set top have much better insulating properties and don't tend to require as much additional heat on cold nights. A good CHE should be able to crank out plenty of heat though. Just need a bump into the high 60s or low 70s overnight is all.

Getting ready for another day. Feeling sleepy. 😴
I just walked into my room and instead of looking at me, Swordtail's eyes darted directly to the ice cream drumstick I'm holding
Finally replaced Swordtail's substrate
I miss you so much, Amaris 💔
What is a quick way to warm up a cold beardie? His heating element went out overnight and now he's very cold.
