FAQs

How long does the Exo Terra Ceramic Heat Emitter last?

The lifespan of the emitter varies, but it can last for several months to a year or more with proper use and care. Regular inspection is recommended.

Can I use this emitter with a dimmer?

No, it's not recommended to use this emitter with a dimmer. Always use a thermostat for temperature regulation.

What wattage do I need for my terrarium?

The wattage depends on the size of your terrarium and the species of your reptile. Refer to the product information or consult with a reptile specialist to determine the appropriate wattage.

How do I clean the emitter?

Allow the emitter to cool completely. Then, wipe it with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using water or cleaning solutions.

Is it safe to touch the emitter?

No, never touch the emitter when it is on or immediately after it has been turned off. It gets very hot and can cause burns. Always allow it to cool down before handling.

Can I use the ceramic heat emitter with a glass enclosure?

Yes, but ensure there's adequate ventilation and the emitter is positioned safely away from the glass to prevent thermal stress or cracking.

Troubleshooting

Emitter is not producing heat.

Check the power connection, ensure the bulb is correctly screwed into the fixture, and confirm the thermostat settings.

Terrarium is too hot.

Adjust the thermostat to a lower temperature setting, move the emitter further away from the basking spot, or use a lower wattage emitter.

Emitter is not producing any light.

This is normal, as the emitter is designed to produce heat without light. Ensure your reptile still has a light for a normal day/night cycle.
