10 Best Heat Mats for Reptiles UK 2024 | AIICIOO, Habistat and More

This mat comes in two sizes with a choice of 8 or 16 watts. The temperature can be set anywhere in the 20 to 42℃ range, meaning that you'll be able to perfectly control your pet's environment. 

The mat can be mounted on the wall of the tank or placed underneath for efficient heat distribution. Suitable for both newer and experienced reptile owners, it comes with a thermostat but there is an option to buy the mat on its own if you already own one. 

If you'd prefer something larger, this 20-watt mat measures over 50 cm in length, making it perfect for more spacious tanks. The 20-42°C adjustable temperature range is still ideal for most reptiles, and the included thermometer will help to keep an eye on their habitat.

It comes with the longest power cord on our list, at 1.76 m, so it's a great option if your terrarium is a little further away from the plug socket. As the waterproof material is completely flexible, you can roll away the mat for easy storage or transportation.

With wattages up to 60W, this is the ideal choice if you have a larger tank or you want to heat multiple tanks in one area. In fact, the largest option could be used for tanks up to 130 gallons.

This model also offers a great range of sizes and wattages. The 7 different choices are ideal for under-tank heating in terrariums from 10 to 100 gallons. With a 1.3-metre cord, you won't have to worry about taut wires causing safety hazards. 

It's the cheapest mat on our list, at just a fraction of the price of some of the other products. The bargain price of this product has made it one of Amazon's bestsellers. Plus, the quality is just as impressive as some of the more expensive mats on the market. 

Wattages from 5 to 20 should be sufficient for most home setups. The 0-35℃ temperature range for these mats is perfect for a wide range of reptiles, and it offers you the ability to drop the temperature down in the evenings to simulate the day and night temperatures that would be experienced in the wild. 

The ability to mount this mat on the wall of the tank makes it ideal for reptiles who need cool hiding spaces. And if your pet enjoys burrowing, having a mat on the wall rather than the floor will ensure they never get too close to the heat.

This PVC mat boasts a high energy efficiency rating, so if you're conscious of energy consumption, this is the product for you. With temperatures from 0 to 40℃, you'll have a wide window of control to cater to your pet's needs. 

Unfortunately, there is only one wattage and sizing option available for this mat. It's 14W and measures 28 x 28 cm, but if this won't be suitable for your tank, you will need to choose another product. 

With 4 different wattage and sizing options, you should be able to equip most standard tanks with this mat. The heat is distributed via conductive wires in a honeycomb pattern to ensure even heat distribution throughout the mat. 

Although the inbuilt temperature dial on the power cord will let you vary the mat's heat output, there is no thermostat to confirm the exact figure. You will need to purchase a thermostat separately, but the combined cost shouldn't be too much higher than a mat that comes with one included. 

This mat comes in 5 and 7-watt options with a temperature range which reaches all the way up to 54℃. It's one of the hottest mats on our list so it's ideal for pets who need a little extra heat. 

The length of the power cord has not been specified for this mat. If your tank is significantly far away from the power outlet, there is a risk that it won't cover the distance. The issue is easily fixed with an extension cord, but that may add a little to the overall cost. 

For smaller tanks, a 5-watt mat will be more than sufficient. This 15 x 18 cm option can be mounted on the wall or under the tank depending on your preference. The PVC coating makes it splashproof and easy to clean.

The temperature range for this mat only runs from 0-35 degrees, so we'd recommend looking elsewhere if your pet requires a warmer habitat. Nonetheless, it's still an ideal heat source for many desert and tropical species of reptiles, amphibians and arachnids.

This camouflage pattern is a great option if you want to make the mat blend in with the other terrarium decor. It can be hung on the wall if you prefer, but we'd recommend under-tank heating to keep visibility at a minimum and improve the efficiency of heat distribution.

Because this mat is powered by a 2-amp USB plug rather than a standard 3-pin, the wattage will be determined by the power source you choose. This means you won't know how fast it will heat up or how hot it will get until you try it with your setup. The only guarantee is that with a high-quality USB to 3-pin adapter, you will be able to achieve temperatures of 25-40°C.
